PROCESSING: on Reading Art
2018, The Gallery of Hong Kong Art School, Hong Kong
Countering the prevailing trend of contemporary art fairs, which tends to place emphasis on the signature artworks or the artistic outcomes rather than the conceptual development and the making process behind, this exhibition is designed to open up another way for perceiving contemporary art.
In this exhibition, a group of emerging artists from the Hong Kong Art School are invited to showcase their artworks together with a “book” that documents their creative process. The work and the book form a unit of exhibit, they complement with each other, allowing the beholders to peek through the creative initiatives and understand related development.
