Opening more than 50 exhibitions per year Institute of Contemporary Arts Singapore at Lasalle College of Arts is giving to its students, graduates an young talents real opportunity to show their works, ideas, realize themselves and try first solo exhibitions. It also gives to art community and public in general great overview of art tendencies development, as freshly graduated today, in 10 years young artists will rule the art scene in Singapore, whole Asia and even the World.
So this week wasn't exception and brought new piece to think about for all art lovers, who could enjoy opening of three different exhibitions @ ICA Galleries. First collective exhibition "The Art Incubator 4" combining installations, series of photographs and even live performance, we were observing in previous post, was result of year residence program for three young artists Mintio, Ang Soo Koon and Bani Haykal. Two others, opened at the same day on the eve of 14th February, were "Shifting between surfaace" by Filip Gudovic and collective work "Parallax Between_Borders: Singapore_China" by five Singaporean artists.
Serbian born Filip Gudovic came out with series of collages and digital works "Shifting between surfaces", considering relationships between physical and virtual surfaces, that are mixed at works through combination of paintings, prints, digital showcases. You can shift between borders until 6th of March at TriSpace Gallery, #B1-05 @ ICA.
"Parallax Between_Borders: Singapore_China" is also mixed-arts exhibition, reviewing borders not between surfaces, but between countries. Five Singaporean artists – Jeremy Hiah, Urich Lau, Lim Shengen, Sai Hua Kuan and Teow Yue Han – travelled to the Northeastern borders of China in the provinces of Jilin and Liaoning in June to July 2012. From the border near Hunchun City, where they could see landscapes of Primorsky Krai (Russia) and North Hamgyong (North Korea), they were guided by Chinese artist Cheng Guangfeng to Sino-Korean Friendship "Broken Bridge", that was connecting North Korean Sinŭiju and Chinese Dandong. The documentary, reflecting details of the trip between China, Russia and North Korea, formed the base for "Mirror of Otherness", a group exhibition in Gaodi Gallery in Chinese Shenyang. "Mirror of Otherness" also included the works of Chinese artists Cheng Guangfeng, Liu Yonghong, Shen Shaomin and Yan Shi. Singapore version of exhibition "Parallax", curated by Zhang Yadong and Urich Lau, reflects relationships between cultures and cross-countries communications. To surfe between borders, visit ICA Gallery 1, #B1-04 until 27th of February. There will be also curators tour handled on the 20th of February from 3 to 4 pm.
