Imagined Geographies

9 March – 19 March 2015

Clipper Lounge, Mandarin Oriental, Hong Kong

Gallery EXIT is pleased to present Imagined Geographies - a group show featuring artworks by Chris HUEN Sin Kan, Gabriel LEUNG, Ivy Ma and Lulu NGIE at the Clipper Lounge in Mandarin Oriental, Hong Kong, the official partner hotel of Art Basel Hong Kong.

Ranging from painting, photographs and an installation, the nine works on view will present different interpretations on the notion of landscape.

Just as books communicate through words, landscapes communicate through morphological and architectural elements. This allows for a thread of interpretations based on physical, political, cultural and emotional narratives.

The works on view take up this notion of landscape as a narrative device that entertains mediation by individual projection and interpretation. Traditional style of en-plein air painting, Chinese shanshui landscape ink painting, taxonomic photography or even moving images of black and white movies - these landscapes are the manifestation of each artist's imagined geography, opening up further invention and inviting imagination.

《幻想風景》

2015 年 3 月 9 日至 19 日

快船廊 香港文華東方酒店

安全口畫廊呈獻群展《幻想風景》，假巴塞爾藝術展香港展會指定酒店香港文華東方酒店內的快船廊舉行，屆時將展出禢善勤、梁思鳴、馬琼珠、倪鷺露的作品。

從油畫、攝影到裝置藝術，展出的九件作品將呈現風景這一概念的不同詮釋。

就如書本透過文字去傳遞訊息，風景則透過形態和建築元素去成就溝通，以這些具體、政治、文化及情感的論述把種種詮釋串連起來。

是次展覽的展出作品把風景此概念視為一種由個人投射和詮釋所調節的敍述工具。傳統寫生繪畫、中國山水水墨畫、分類式攝影、以至黑白電影中的動態影像──這些風景都是每一個藝術家所幻想的風景，從而展開進一步的想像和創造。
