(May 1, 2015, Shanghai) Kohler, together with 8 young Asian artists, provide art lovers with Contemporary Asian Art Exhibition on May 1 in K11 Mall in Shanghai. The exhibition, which lasts for 10 days, will put several exquisite and valuable designs on display to show the inseparable relationship between art and industry.
The main theme of the current Bold. Art. Asia. Exhibition, includes four sub-themes that allow local artists to explore more in-depth themes in cultural context. This contemporary Asian artwork examines how the artists see the changes, such as continuing urbanization of Asia’s ever-increasing economic power on the world’s stage, the impact of constant innovation and technologies on society.
Along with Taiwan’s own roots and a rich Chinese cultural heritage, the island and its people have also absorbed Japanese and European elements throughout the country’s history. A new generation of Taiwanese have grown up in Asia with a growing influence on the world’s stage and are exploring what it means to be Taiwanese and how to express their identities.
In the past few decades, more and more people have flocked to the cities where they expect to make their fortunes and realize their dreams. Urbanization presents problems as well as advantages. The artists will explore this conflict as they show metro dreams though their art.
The city’s incredible history and rise from a British colonial outpost, a global financial hub and world city, as well as the integration with China since 1997, provides an interesting context to explore for our Hong Kong-based Bold. Art. Artists.
Korea has a century-old history and traditions. At the same time, Korean pop culture and fashion have swept across Asia and parts of the Western world. Conservative values versus a new openness and trendsetting aspirations provide an interesting backdrop to explore what today’s Korea means to the artists.
