  Qiu Jie: Solo Exhibition

  13 September - 26 October 2013 In his intricate pencil drawings, Chinese artist Qiu Jie confronts the history of Chinese society with contemporary Western popular culture in a black and white aesthetics. His drawings create links that sew a common thread between different situations, establishing another logic in the story of time. Before moving to Switzerland in 1989, “the man who comes from other mountains” (his pseudonym and signature in each work), spent his childhood in China during the Cultural Revolution, drawing and copying propaganda images from local newspapers. Today each of his drawings are inspired by existing images extracted from an infinite panel of sources, from newspapers to advertisments, paintings and photos. The artist, acting as a novelist, uses these existing characters to compose a story of his own. Read more

  Chun Kwang Young: Assemblage

  29 May - 31 August 2013 Chun Kwang Young has spent his career seeking the individuality of a style that allows him to express the dualities indigenous to his work. Beginning the long journey into Abstract Expressionism in the 1970s, a move to America spurred him to embrace a direction that could freely express the divide he encountered between promises and reality. From there, Chun sought a personal language and a strong voice that would allow him to incorporate influences from his homeland. A seminal moment came in 1995, when Chun began to create structural works of art made of the assemblage of hundreds of polystyrene foam triangles wrapped in Korean mulberry paper. Known as hanji, the paper is deeply rooted in Korean tradition and was at one time a ubiquitous household material, as well as a means of wrapping various objects such as medicine and food. Read more

  Bernar Venet: A Solo Exhibition

  26 September - 24 November 2012 In his solo exhibition, acclaimed French artist Bernar Venet showed new sculptural reliefs from his GRIB series, an extension of the original wooden Indeterminate Lines that were developed between 1979 and 1983. The works included in this show were made from 35mm steel plates torch-cut by hand. The technique adds to the unpredictable nature of these ‘scribbles’ and gives these works a rougher character and more accessibility than their predecessors. The scribbling of the GRIB wall pieces logically connects the action of drawing in a random two-dimensional gesticulation and the physicality of a precise three-dimensional figure. With these new works, Bernar Venet sees a very wide field of possibilities and new propositions. Read more
