SUMMARY:Boo Sze Yang\, Milenko Prvački & Wong Keen | The Spatial\, The Ephemeral\, And The Possibility Of It All | artcommune gallery
DESCRIPTION:Boo Sze Yang\, Milenko Prvački & Wong Keen |\nThe Spatial\, The Ephemeral\, And The Possibility Of It All \nartcommune gallery\n01.07.2023 – 16.07.2023\n  \nartcommune gallery is honoured to present The Spatial\, The Ephemeral\, And The Possibility Of It All. This major 3-man group exhibition\, will showcase over 30 new works by Singapore’s leading and most senior contemporary painters namely Boo Sze Yang\, Milenko Prvački and Wong Keen. The exhibition encompasses a juxtaposition of three individual and distinct presentations: ‘Romance On Hobby Horses’ by Boo Sze Yang\, ‘Abstraction For Beginners’ by Milenko Prvački\, and ‘Everything Is But Colour’ by Wong Keen\, more details on each presentation can be found in Annex A. Each artistic presentation will showcase his latest series of paintings\, encouraging the audience to delve deeper into the artist’s psyche and preoccupations that shape his techniques\, themes and expressions. Visitors can expect to view a range of paintings from abstract to figurative works\, with the smallest painting measuring from 40 x 120 cm to the largest paintings at 200 x 600 cm or 300 x 400 cm. \nWhile the artists are known to one another\, this marks the first time their works are exhibited together in conversation. Despite their different backgrounds\, formal training and visual styles\, Boo Sze Yang\, Milenko Prvački and Wong Keen have each dedicated their respective practices to the medium of painting\, burrowing ever deeper in their explorations and expansions of materials and forms. The Spatial\, The Ephemeral\, And The Possibility Of It All aims to illuminate how the three artists conceive and locate their painting practices in relation to the development of painting as a formal medium and language\, and how they renew the significance of painting in these contemporary times. \nThe curator of the exhibition Ma Pei Yi opines\, “Many great painters\, from Vincent van Gogh to Jackson Pollock\, have asserted the well-worn expression that the painting has a life of its own. This exhibition brings to focus the fiery passion and unique intricacies that characterise each artist’s dynamic engagement with the medium of painting. Artists create paintings to contemplate and communicate certain issues\, ideas and emotions (aesthetic\, cultural\, political\, moral\, etc.). The process of painting is very much a means of probing into the unknowable and the uncomfortable\, the tussle between good and evil\, events of loss and turbulence\, the resilience and frailty of life\, and all the inherent contradictions of mankind.” \nThe show officially opens on Saturday\, 1 July 2023\, from 2pm to 4.30pm with the artists in attendance. More details on the opening day\, artist talk\, opening hours and guided tours can be found below. \n\n  \nAbout the Artists\nBoo Sze Yang (b. 1965\, Singapore) graduated from the Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts in 1991 and completed his Postgraduate Diploma in Fine Art at the University of Reading\, UK in 1995. He also obtained a Master in Arts Degree from Chelsea College of Art & Design\, the University of the Arts\, London in 2004.  \n  \nBoo has held 18 solo exhibitions.

He was Dean of the Faculty of Fine Arts for 17 years and currently holds the position of Senior Fellow. In 2002\, Milenko became a Singapore citizen and was conferred the prestigious Cultural Medallion Award for Visual Arts in 2012.  \nSince 1971\, Milenko has exhibited extensively locally and abroad. His works are in the permanent collections of the Art Gallery of New South Wales\, Sydney\, Australia; Museum of Contemporary Art\, Belgrade\, Serbia; Museum of Contemporary Drawing\, Nuremberg\, Germany; Singapore Art Museum and National Gallery Singapore\, among others. \nThe artist has also participated in numerous symposiums and art workshops worldwide. He continues to be engaged as visiting professor of fine arts at Musashino Art University in Tokyo\, Japan\, Sabanci University in Istanbul\, Turkey\, University of Washington’s School of Art\, Washington D.C.\, United States\, and RMIT University\, Melbourne\, Australia.  \nPrvački has garnered multiple numerous awards and honours over his decades-long art practice.

In 1961\, he travelled to America to study at the Art Students League of New York\, becoming the first Singaporean and earliest of Chinese artists to venture into the post-war American art scene.  \n  \nIn 1965\, he became the first Singaporean and Asian of Chinese origin to be awarded the prestigious Edward G. McDowell Travelling Scholarship in the history of the Art Students League. With the scholarship\, he completed a one-year postgraduate program at the then St. Martin’s School of Art in London. \n​ \nHaving spent over fifty years in the US\, Wong Keen registered a plethora of artistic influences that melded the fast-paced American art scene. His prolific oeuvre\, which encompasses oil\, ink\, acrylic\, collage\, and mixed media works\, is a powerful embodiment of the delicate expressivity of Chinese ink wash aesthetics and Western inventive approach towards form and colour. \n  \nWong Keen’s work is held in a number of private and public collections\, including the National Art Museum of China\, Minnesota State University Art Museum\, Albright Knox Art Gallery\, New York\, National Gallery Singapore\, Urban Redevelopment Authority\, Singapore\, Resorts World Sentosa and Fullerton Hotel. \n  \n  \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:Forever | 人长久 Ink Paintings by Tung Yue Nang
DESCRIPTION:artcommune gallery is pleased to present the latest solo exhibition of veteran artist Tung Yue Nang. The show\, which is on view at artcommune gallery from 13 to 28 May 2023\, features 24 new ink works by the artist\, including a momentous and large-scale ink landscape of Chinatown scene measuring 95 x 548 cm. \n\nBorn in Singapore in 1959\, Tung Yue Nang (邓汝能) cultivated a keen interest for the arts since young. He delved into the formal arts world at the age of 15\, when he began learning Chinese painting\, calligraphy\, seal carving and engraving under the tutelage of pioneer artist-educator\, Shi Xiang Tuo. Over the past three decades\, his art practice has evolved to encompass Western mediums such as acrylic and mixed media painting\, collage\, sculpture\, and photography. However\, the medium of Chinese brush and ink remains the cornerstone of his practice and his immersion in the art form is guided by the Chinese Tao philosophy\, which centres on harmony\, tranquility and simplicity. \nOver the past decade\, Tung Yue Nang has established a dynamic ink repertoire that is recognisable for its dramatic and ornate figurative style. These works combine Western compositional techniques with a delicate Chinese brush-and-ink execution to express the unique beauty and richness of our local cultural landscapes. Architectural environments and human figures are related through tremendous accuracy and detail in these dramatically monochrome paintings. \n\n\nThe exhibition title\, ‘Forever’\, was translated from the artist’s original Chinese title\, ‘⼈长久’. The phrase was taken from a famous Song Chinese poem\, Prelude to Water Melody (⽔调歌头- 明⽉⼏时有)\, which was composed by court-official and literati artist-poet Su Shi (also commonly known as Su Dongbo). The poem was written during the Chinese Mid-Autumn Festival of 1076 while Su Shi was feeling melancholic and missing his brother\, who was a court official stationed in another faraway state. \nSu Shi points out in the poem that\, ‘People have sorrows\, joys\, partings and reunions/ Just as the moon turns dark or bright\, and waxes or wanes during different phases/ This is but a reality since ancient times/ Yet one hopes that every man enjoys longevity/ Even with thousand miles apart\, that we may all see and be connected by the moon’s beauty.’ \nThrough his art and in his own way\, Tung Yue Nang seeks to immortalise the unique cultural elements and everyday beauty of our local heritage streets. Every painting is a nuanced display of humanity\, and through it he connects the audience with the vitality and immediacy of life. Because his sincere being and profound connection with the landscape flow ever so naturally into the composition\, the old buildings with their weathered charms\, and folks passing by the streets or engrossed in their daily routines\, come alive organically in his works. One is easily transfixed by the fascinating atmosphere of his Singapore riverside\, Chinatown or Joo Chiat shophouse scene\, where the coming and going of people and their myriad interactions amplify the hustle and bustle of daily life.

SUMMARY:Cheong Soo Pieng: Drawings
DESCRIPTION:artcommune proudly presents Cheong Soo Pieng: Drawings\, an exhibition of over 30 drawings on paper that span three decades of the artist’s career arc. Drawing was integral to Soo Pieng’s practice and many drawings made during his lifetime were fashioned into recurring forms and expressions in his oil and ink paintings. It is estimated that his drawings alone amount to around two or even three thousand works\, many of which are now in Singapore’s national collection. \n\nCheong Soo Pieng (b. 1917\, Xiamen\, China – d. 1983\, Singapore) is an important pioneer of the Nanyang art style and one of the most creative Chinese artists of the 20th century. Soo Pieng studied at Xiamen Academy of Fine Arts and furthered his education at Xinhua Academy of Fine Arts in Shanghai. After the 2nd World War\, he relocated to Singapore in 1946 to take on a teaching post at the Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts (NAFA) and thereon began his fervent amalgamation of Modern Western and Chinese pictorial styles. Often drawing inspiration from themes and subject matters relating to his new\, immediate environment in Southeast Asia\, the landmark trip to Bali in 1952 inspired Soo Pieng (and three other pioneer artists Chen Wen Hsi\, Chen Chong Swee\, Liu Kang) to reinvent groundbreaking pictorial modes culminating to the Nanyang art style. A trailblazer throughout his lifetime\, his creative output of varied styles and mediums was instrumental in shaping the early Singapore art scene. \n\nThe selection in this exhibition largely dates from the period of late-1940s-early 1960s\, which offers a glimpse into Soo Pieng’s captivating repertoire of everyday encounters on the streets of Singapore and Malaysia\, as well as his sojourns abroad at places such as Bali (1952)\, Borneo (1959) and Europe (1962-63). Also featured are drawings of Balinese scenes and figures completed by Soo Pieng during his last known visit to the island in 1977\, which captures his aesthetic shift to a highly ornate and detailed style of drawing in the later period. Together\, these drawings apprehend the interiority of Soo Pieng’s thoughts and the primacy of form in his painting process.

SUMMARY:Chng Seok Tin: Through All Vicissitudes
DESCRIPTION:ART:DIS (Singapore) Ltd and artcommune proudly present Through All Vicissitudes: Prints & Sculptures by Chng Seok Tin\, which is on view at artcommune gallery from 12 to 27 November 2022. Featuring over 30 prints and sculptures that span the period of 1976-2010s\, the exhibition traces the motivations that shaped Chng’s four decade-long creative journey and celebrates a life lived large in spite of obstacles and misfortunes. \nChng Seok Tin (b. 1946\, Singapore – d. 2019\, Singapore)\, Cultural Medallion recipient\, was a renowned printmaker\, sculptor and multi-media artist whose devoted practice to printmaking became synonymous with the Singapore printmaking development between the 1980s and 1990s. Chng’s printmaking oeuvre encompasses a variety of techniques and experiments (lithography\, etching\, engraving\, silkscreen\, woodcut\, monotype and ink transfer)\, and reflects her mediations on Zhuang Zi (庄子) and various philosophical texts. Themes of existentialism resonate strongly in her prints and sculptures\, which often dramatise man’s pursuits of dream\, love and freedom\, and the struggles towards enlightenment. At times\, wry social commentary or humorous banter permeate her imagery. \nAn accident in 1988 left Chng visually impaired. This forced her to rely on mainly dry point or mixed media method\, and the help of an assistant to continue her printmaking into the 2000s. Having earlier adopted mixed media installation and sculpture into her practice during her studies abroad in the 1980s\, she decided to focus more on these mediums beginning in the mid-90s as they afforded her a more tactile and flexible exploration of forms and materials. \nA firm believer in inspiring and building the capabilities of the younger generation\, this exhibition will also raise funds towards the CST Education Fund to support young artists with disabilities to participate in a new Industry Mentorship Programme organized by ART:DIS.
