Gilbert & George
19/01-03/04
For the first time, Gilbert & George
will vist Singapore with a new body
of pictures especially for the show at
ARNDT. The London based
Gilbert & George met as students at
the prestigious St Martin’s School of
Art in London in 1967. Their
revolutionary approach of making
themselves into ‘living sculptures’ by
incorporating private life into the art
practice made them famous already
by 1969. Not even two decades later
the extravagant and prolific duo won
the Turner Prize, Britain’s most
prestigious art award (1984). The
prize was followed by other major
achievements such as representing
Britain at the 51st Venice Biennale
(2005), earning a 40th anniversary
retrospective at Tate Modern
(2007) and many more.

Large Pigment: Yu Aijun
15/01–07/02
For Yu Aijun's first solo exhibition
in Singapore, he minimized the
elements of painting to paper,
pencil and black pigment only. As
far as his paintings are concerned,
the visual liveliness and vitality, and
the profundity and significance of
the themes are unnecessary. It
would be better to say that he is
trying to invent a lingual concept
rather than a new language. Here
the subject is overwhelmingly
intensified and the objects
collectively concealed. The canvas
has become a battlefield. For a pair
of hands with ample school
training, he has to be in control of
the canvas but the control is often
rendered superfluous given the
preset rules, giving rise to a violent
clash between empiricism and
visual uncertainties. The result is
that although his techniques,
medium, style and themes are
vivid, they exist only as surreal
beings, like meaningless pictorial
fragments floating over the canvas.

Transcontemporary:
Armen Agop
22/01–21/02
Transcontemporary, a solo
exhibition by Egyptian artist Armen
Agop. Running from 22nd to 25th
January 2015, Transcontemporary
unveils new granite and bronze
sculptures that are both
free-standing and wall-mounted.
Armen Agop's sculptures have been
called futuristic, other-worldy,
UFOs, and at the same time
ancient, spiritual and meditative.
They are forms that seem familiar
and yet unusual. They may remind
you of something you haven't yet
seen. This may be in part due to the
timelessness of the material he
chooses and it may be due to his
approach, which results in precise
forms that demand contemplation.
Cape of Good Hope Art Gallery
presents the Impressionistic
Collection in celebration of SG50,
50th anniversary of Singapore.
The exhibition presents artworks
by Singaporean artists that exhibits
an influence of Impressionistic
style. These local artists are Ang
Ah Tee, Choy Weng Yang, Goh
Beng Kwan, Koeh Sia Yong, Lim
Leong Seng, Low Puay Hua and
Nai Swee Leng.
Impressionism has influenced
Singapore artists since the mid
-20th century when the regional
Nanyang style was established. The
Nanyang painting style drew from
both the essence of traditional
Chinese ink painting and the
Parisian impressionism movement.
This influence is reflected in their
paintings which reveal hints of the
characteristic impressionist style
with the skilful employment of
textured brushstrokes, open
compositions and dynamic lighting.
The use of such techniques allowed
Singapore artists to veer towards
modern impressionist expression
and at the same time capture the
essence of local artistic flavour.
After: Michel Platnic
22/01–21/02
After, a solo exhibition by Israeli
artist Michel Platnic, running from

2015, After is a unique exhibition
experience featuring dramatic
‘living paintings’ presented form of
video installations and large-scale
prints. Using a complex
combination of traditional and
innovative mediums, Platnic’s
portraits, stylistically described as
‘after’ the iconic Francis Bacon,
come to life, moving within their
frames as though the characters
exist within a microcosmic universe.

Ataraxy: Ruben Pang
16/01–08/02
Ataraxy, Ruben Pang's 5th solo
exhibition, extracts creative energy
from disarray and entropy, thus
realizing the state of tranquility the
term implies. In each painting,
various artistic personalities find
themselves in psychodramatic
scenarios with their subconscious
drives personified through figures in
constant change. The paintings
portray creators in the midst of
contemplation, decision making, and
other obstacles. Pang finds affinities
and luminaries in both historical and
fictional artists, these works attempt
to connect the dots and unravel the
underlying significance of and
between the subjects he consistently
finds himself drawn to. In this sense,
Ataraxy can be considered a
collection of annotations in which
the artist finds sanctuary.
15/01–14/02
Renowned for her distinctive
depictions of architectural spaces
in Chinese ink, Hong Sek Chern
addresses the issues of urbanization
and identity. Reflecting a masterful
interplay of collapsed lines and
multi-point perspectives, Hong
expresses the influence of invading
nature by infusing concrete reality
with the subjective experience.

In this exhibition, Arkiv Vilmansa
will present new works with a new
medium of layered acrylic boards.
In the beginning, he was very
unsure to make a work out of
acrylic board. He thinks that he is
the only artist who has done so.
The technique is very difficult
and there are many risks involved.
Every layer of the acrylic board
needs to be glued tightly until
there are no air gaps using epoxy
resin. He explained thtat this
medium was the most difficult
works that he ever created as an
artist. He said. "canvas has been
commonly used by everyone. I
want to find something new and
difficult that has never been done
before."
Since his debut in 2005, Arkiv has
become a prominent name in the
lowbrow art and designer toy
culture. His work has been
featured in galleries in US,
Germany and Indonesia. With
this exhibition, Arkiv presents
new characters that just entered
his world of imagination that is
wild yet represent deep meaning
in his career as an artist. The
character Mickiv which has been
present throughout his career as
an artist, becomes more wild and
free with bolder strokes and
brighter colors. The concept of
layering paints and acrylic board
symbolize the different phases of
his career first as a Graphic
Designer, then as an Architect
and Artist. This is where he came
with the concept of Past, Present
and Future. For Arkiv, his past
shapes him as an artist today.
For Arkiv, the Future is
everything and he has a reversed
idea about it whereas most people
would think of past, present and
future. As an artist, he always
thinks that the Future is his world
of imagination and the
background is him as a graphic
designer and architect. The
Future shadows his process of
making art and acts as a guide to
finish the works that he has never
done before. The Future for him,
is the most important of all, and
the Past and Present are merged
to support his future. The roles
are all reversed.

A Thing of Beauty:
Dawn Ng
16/01–25/01
A THING OF BEAUTY is a
series of photographed installations
of small, common objects — the
objectified minutia of everyday life
culminating in a wonderland of
monochromatic shades and shapes.
Drawing from symbolism and
surrealism, A THING OF
BEAUTY forges unexpected
relationships between objects from
different worlds to create a new
visual language through the use of
colour, scale, shape and texture. If
objects be words or codes, each
installation is a puzzle, secret or
poem unto itself, containing both the
absurdities and profoundness of life
found in a grand orchestra of stuff.
17/01–08/03
Partners & Mucciaccia presents the
solo exposition ofJacques Villeglé,
one of the most important living
French artists, curated by
Dominique Stella. As the only
French artist whom the New York
Museum of Modern Art dedicates
an exhibition to, his works are
widely exhibited in museums and
galleries around world, notably
MoMa (New York), Tate Gallery
(London) and Centre Pompidou
(Paris). Currently, his works are
being exhibited at Musée Tinguely
in Basel and will be continuing his
next exhibition at Schirn
Kunsthalle of Frankfurt.
Hiroshi Senju, one of Japan’s
most celebrated artists, presents
new fluorescent waterfall paintings
in Day Falls/Night Falls. Noted
worldwide for his sublime
waterfall and cliff images, Hiroshi
Senju combines a minimalist
visual language rooted in Abstract
Expressionism with ancient
techniques unique to Japan.
Jacques Villeglé’s exhibition at
Partners & Mucciaccia will
showcase the Nouveau Réalisme of
the artist’s works, through a
retrospective made by more than
50 artworks, from the ‘décollages
d’affiches’ of the Sixties to the lasts
ripped posters realized in the 2000,
including his recent works
elaborated with his socio-politics
signs technique. This exhibition
highlights the innovative nature of
the ‘recycling techniques’, the
artist’s favourite, which allows him
the possibility of understanding the
world by an anarchic and poetic
interpretation.
In January 2015, iPreciation will
present the works of four
Singaporean artists – Chris Yap
(b.1969), Wee Kheng-Li (b.1971),
Wang Ruobing (b.1975) and Sai
Hua Kuan (b.1976). This show
aims to promote greater awareness
and understanding of
contemporary fine arts photography
practice that currently exists here
through Singapore artists who are
keen to emphasize the role of visual
intelligence, critical thinking /
theory, and philosophy in engaging
with the world through human
eyes. The works will focus on the
poetics of space and place, tensions
of history and contemporaneity, all
captured through scenes of the
streets in Asia, from Singapore to
Japan to Indonesia to China.

Solo Exhibition by
Cha Jong-Rye
22/01–15/02
Internationally renowned Korean
sculptor, Cha Jong-Rye, lets her
material, wood, steer her practice,
unveiling the inner thoughts as it takes
the shape of her hands. The natural
smoothness of the wood emerges in
the form of lights and shadows, which
come to life with subtle energy, and
manifests itself as an earthy sensuality
that hints at the spiritual character of
humanity. Cha Jong-Rye’s works are
a part of numerous private collections
and exhibited in solo and group
shows globally.
Six young Chinese artists at the
forefront of the new generation, they
employ a wide range of media,
materials and strategies in their
investigation into the multiple
meanings of machine. As an artificial
complex, machines both extend and
restrict our perceptions and actions.
Together, the artists bridge the gap
between the mental and physical
world in extracting metaphors for the
modern city life from the machineobject. The works will explore
processes and effects of technology,
globalisation, industrialisation and
the mechanisation of the artist’s body
and labour.
Pan Dehai is no doubt one of the
most established Chinese
Contemporary artists today. Over
the past twenty years, he has been
widely known for creating the
image of the ‘Fat Corn Men’ in
his works. In form, the ‘Fat Corn
Men’ are a synonym of affluent
materialistic life and various
desirers; yet in content they are
often a synonym of
simple-minded people, and when
the image of these Corn Men is
connected with the social, political
and life scenes during the red era,
these figures dressed in blue
uniforms give us a sense of hardly
understandable humor and
absurdity, a reminder that there is
still a small-peasant mentality and
other feudal ideas in our pursuit
for materialistic desires today.
In his latest showcase of works for
this solo exhibition, Pan Dehai
continues to bring forward this
concept but through a more subtle
way of expression. Our everyday
life is comprised mainly of petty
things and trifling matters.
However, to ‘fuss over’ them is
not without sense. To observe
them carefully can bring some
kind of change to ourselves, to
experience this change will bring
our thoughts and feelings in the
stream of our past and present as
well as stimulate our potential
talents, to allow us to go back to
the provenance of art and the
departure of life.
Ju Ming’s Taichi Outdoor
Exhibition at Singapore
Botanic Gardens
17/01–16/04
This outdoor public exhibition of Ju
Ming’s world-class Taichi series
bronze work will be its inaugural
show in South-East Asia. It will
feature 15 of Ju Ming’s monumental
Taichi sculptures, set within the
green landscaped gardens of
Singapore Botanic Gardens,
providing the general public a chance
to enjoy art in an outdoor public
space. With the main thrust of
contemporary Asian sculpture
development lying in the new
interpretation of forms that
interconnect modern civilization and
its traditional culture, Ju Ming seeks
to marry the spirit of Chinese
traditional painting and calligraphy
with his modern abstract forms in
Taichi.

Ancient Fantasy:
Solo Exhibiton by
Leading Japanese Artist
Kukoku Tamura
16/01–28/03
Kukoku Tamura (b. 1935) is a
Japanese artist who specialises in
sumi (Japanese ink wash)
paintings. Kukoku Tamura’s
intricate fusion of painting and
calligraphy produce many
captivating symbolic elements in
his artworks that confound and
intrigue the viewer. Using sumi as
a primary medium, dynamic
calligraphy brush strokes are
prominently displayed in Kukoku’s
artworks, distinguishing his work
from others. Blank spaces are also
a commonality in the artist’s work.
Assisted by Masashi Ozaki, a
well-known printmaker in Japan,
Kukoku has notably dedicated
much of his time to lithography, a
method used in his paintings.
This exhibition will display at least
15 of Kukoku’s abstract paintings
under his ‘Ancient Fantasy’ series.
Kato Art Duo will also showcase a
rare and exclusive screening of a
video interview with Kukoku
during the exhibition opening
where the artist will explain in
depth about his paintings.

New Works
by Suzann Victor
18/01–21/02
Suzann Victor’s conceptual
prowess and ability to articulate
complex ideas in technically
challenging forms has made her
one of Singapore’s most
pronounced artists to date.
Known for demonstrating sheer
critical thought through clever
use of form following function,
Victor’s profound new body of
work weaves in performance, the
use of light, Fresnel lenses and
the recurring circular motif with
print methods and materials at
STPI, drawing out metaphorical
and literal opacities. Guided by
the site-specificity and
experience of her residency, this
exhibition will be a unique
showcase of works and
aesthetic—one that is a rare
addition to her oeuvre.

Juramentado:
Solo Exhibition by
Winner Jumalon
20/01–15/03
Yavuz Gallery is pleased to
present Winner Jumalon, one of
the Philippines' most prominent
young artists, in his first solo
exhibition in Singapore.
Comprised of new paintings,
drawings and sculptures,
'Juramentado' draws from the
langauge, stories, customs and
landscapes from the artist's
hometown of Zamboanga City,
Philippines. The exhibition and
artwork titles are rendered in
Cabacano, a Filipino creole
language derived from Spanish
and widely used in Zamboanga.
When describing his works,
Jumalon often talks about specific
faces and spaces that inspire him.
His body of work can be
characterised by an ongoing
exploration of personal, cultural
and artistic identites, which are
often fluid and interlinked. In
'Juramentado', Filipino culture
and history are explicitly linked to
his own experiences and family
history, in layered images
populated by figures both real
and mythical.
