The 20‑Year Archive invited artists Heman Chong, MAP Office, Raqs Media Collective and the cumulative work of Torika Bolatagici, Mat Hunkin and Teresia Teaiwa, to respond to archives in New Delhi, Hong Kong and the Pacific, as well as the APT archive. The APT archive also provided the basis for Singaporean artist Heman Chong’s multi‑channel sound installation at GOMA. The 20‑Year Archive was also represented in a display of previous Kids’ APT drawing projects and the launch of QAGOMA TV, an online initiative that brought together for the first time artist interviews, performances, panel discussions and documentaries from all seven APT exhibitions. tHe 20-year arCHive 27 EXHIBITION
