Winter Feeling by Stephen Leong Chun Hong |
Societe Generale Gallery at Alliance Francaise de Singapour is well-known as one of the most active art grounds and prestige place for artists and collectives to exhibit. I was writing already about five young and talented Lasalle College of Arts graduates, who came up with Almanic collective and Dustbunnies exhibition. And today, there is new showcase - "Natural Impressionism" by Stephen Leong Chun Hong, President of Federation of the Federation of Arts Societies Singapore.
On the eve of 18th of June, more than hundred guests, art lovers, friends, colleagues, gathered to greet "Natural Impressionism" exhibition, opened by guest of Honour H.E. Olivier Caron, Ambassador of France to Singapore.
Bali temples, Cambodia treasure, Korean village, bamboo forest, bushes and ponds with birds - all that objects of Leong's art are chosen to be painted and represent calmness and lack of movement, to picture stability and eternity of our world, give to the viewer feeling of imperishability and calmness, confidence in future. Calligraphy pieces such as 'Good mood' give additional prove in it. After visiting exhibition you get undeniable feeling of eternal life, that artist could create by featuring simple objects surrounding us and paining it with few brush strokes, leaving every art lover opportunity to fill out missing peices by using own experience and imagination.
Exhibition is supported by National Arts Council, Orangina, Choice Wines, Artists Generation Network and can be seen until 10th of July @Societe Generale Gallery, Alliance Francaise de Singapour, 1 Saskies Road, Level 2, Monday to Friday from 11 am to 7 pm, Saturday from 11 am to 5 pm, Closed on Sunday, PH.
