Art Stage Singapore 2011

Uncategorized Comments Off on Art Stage Singapore 2011

We’ve just returned from a whirlwind trip in Singapore to join the frenzy of Art Stage 2011.

The Singaporeans and their consultants certainly pulled out all the stops, and pretty much pulled off a very ambitious plan in 8 months. What the fair lacked in punch, it made up for in range – there was a lot to take in and there was a nice safe balance of works from East/West/big-time/emerging. We thought a lot more could have been done about the project booths and the vernissage could have been more wow but as Asian art fairs go, it was pretty alright.

We were more impressed by the island-wide effort to make an art weekend of it. Visitors we met in the elevator said they were having “a great party”.

For drama, there was the entry to Collectors’ Stage at ArtSpace@HeluTrans. The show was an important effort, but as patriotic Southeast Asians we really thought a lot of super pieces (and collections) had been missed.

‘Sofa’ & ‘Pose No. 1, 2 & 3’ by Handiwirman Saputra

Roberto Chabet : To be continued
at Institute of Contemporary Art (at LaSalle College of the Arts)

Manuel Ocampo : The Painter’s Equipment
at VWFA @ ArtSpace@HeluTrans

The Pinoys were also out in full force – one-man shows by Roberto Chabet, Ben Cabrera and Manuel Ocampo punctuated the weekend. “Roberto Chabet: To be continued…” at the ICA kicked off a year of exhibitions and projects to commemorate the 50th anniversary of this seminal conceptual artist’s first show – if you’re going down to Singapore this is the one exhibition you must go and see. Bad boy Ocampo’s “The Painter’s Equipment” at VWFA Singapore was also a refreshing surprise. We didn’t manage much else, popped into Tokyo Cool at 8Q, missed all the talks and the Open House Marine Parade art tour which just looked too frighteningly popular.

Picture(s) of the Week: Yuli Prayitno

Uncategorized 1 Comment »

A long desire from this corner, 2008-2009, polyester resin, cotton and kapok, 80 x 440 x 25 cm

Yes, we know. We have been a little “Indonesian heavy” with our recent posts. Apologies if this seems a little one-sided as it is impossible to ignore the inspiring bursts of creative energies coming from our neighbouring country. Here are pictures from Indonesian sculptor Yuli Prayitno’s latest solo exhibition at Nadi Gallery in Jakarta. Titled ” I Love…”, this show has been delayed for nearly 2 years as Yuli, who is somewhat of an obsessive compulsive/perfectionist, launched into control freak mode and decided to make everything on his own. Nevertheless, the quality speaks for itself; the time taken to make each object contributes to the value of the work. Fine finishing, beautiful treatment of material and form, a witty imagination and sardonic humour are some of the reasons why this exhibition should not be missed.

I can't get now satisfaction, 2007-2009, wood, 47 x 260 x 42 cm

Love in Blue, 2007-2009, Polyurethane resin and silver, 100 x 100 x 20 cm

Love in Blue, 2007-2009, Polyurethane resin and silver, 100 x 100 x 20 cm

Yuli Prayitno’s “I Love…” opens from April 1-13, 2009 at Nadi Gallery, Jl. Kembang Indah III, Blok G3 No. 4-5, Puri Indah, Jakarta 11610.  We’ll try to keep our next post non-Indonesia related. Promise. (AO)
