A curated selection of outstanding artworks is being presented in a pop-up exhibition on the first floor of Iconluxe Iconsiam, Charoen Nakhon Road, from today until Jan 31. The opening reception is today at 7pm.
Titled "The Space Between Us", the exhibition is organised by Tang Contemporary Art which brings almost 30 artworks covering video, sculptures, print, and paintings by 15 local and international artists.
They include Chen Tianzhuo, Chen Zihao, Chong Ai Le, Dinh Q Le, Entang Wiharso, Gongkan, Guan Saimei, Jiang Zhi, Kitti Narod, Ling Jian, Pannaphan Yodmanee, Roldan Manok Ventura, Su Bin, Tawan Wattuya and Yuree Kensaku.
The development of contemporary art started a century ago with Marcel Duchamp's most famous work, Fountain, which is widely seen as an icon of 20th-century art.
The slogan "Painting Is Dead" has been circulating for decades but when we really look at a painting with our hearts, we will be moved by the artist's brushstrokes and colours.
Creativity and critical thinking are tools of artists as they ask more in-depth questions and broaden human thinking. Contemporary art has a relationship with history, philosophy, politics and art. It knows no borders and is the common language of all mankind.
This pop-up exhibition aims to open a door to a whole new world in which viewers are invited to engage in different cultures and ideas presented through new artwork.
