"In Your Mind's Eye" Exhibition
Sundaram Tagore Gallery
This event has ended.
In Your Mind's Eye includes works from seven of the gallery's most influencial Asian artists.
Korean painter Ho Sook Kang uses dense images of flying cranes, referencing redemption, which is a significant theme that runs through Korean and Japanese symbology. Internatoinally renowned Indian photographer Subhankar Banerjee is known for beautiful works akin to the tradition of Ansel Adams. Banerjee focuses on indigenous cultures that are disappearing and the effects of global climate change. Hiroshi Senju's work referencing water is powerful and evocative. Nathan Slate Joseph's work on galvanized steel references materials found in urban centers in Asia.
The exhibition is especially exciting, as the gallery just launched its third locaton in Hong Kong in May, and thus has a special resonance. "To exhibit the work of artists of Asian origins is exciting because that region is producing some of the most interesting work right now. Artists with roots there are a part of a special time in the contemporary art scene right now."
