HK Ongoing Art Exhibitions

Andy Wauman, Art Statements Gallery, 5 Mee Lun Street, Central Hong Kong ,January 08, 2009-February 19, 2009

Wauman’s works speak about the possibility of freedom. They are messages with a romantic sense for anarchy and love. In his statements, he often uses images that have been violated, multiplied and copied by commercial media. He recuperates common metaphors and symbols and gives them back their original romantic touch or even ideological meaning. The poetic quality is striking. Wauman’s work combines subdued social criticism with a slumbering mythical desire for eternal freedom.

Stephanie Sin: Damon Tong Sin Sin Fine Art,  No.1 Prince's Terrace Ground floor Mid-Levels, Hong Kong

January 08, 2009-February 21, 2009

Stephanie Sin (Sin Long Yee), a graduate of HK Art School, just like the ordinary people of Hong Kong, lives in a tiny place but she develops an abstract pattern as inspired by the window lattice and its surrounding space, an essence of forms and colours extracted from reality for the pursuit of pure aesthetics in painting. The development of such abstract paintings evolving from their daily personal situation amidst the urban crowdedness manifests their concerns about the social issues as well as their heed to personal living space, details and scenes with a view to the personal pursuit of aesthetics.
