Chase the dragon
Opening 8 January, 2011 6 to 9PM
Until 26 February,
2011
Chase the dragon : "Paint as some could not stop smoking their opium
pipe back in the days." "Do crack heads and painters have something in common ?"
"What is painting about these days ?" Rock meets Chic and [UTF-8?]let’s see
where the painters lead us in their trip while under the adrenaline of their own
painting. With artists such as Dado, Peter Saul, Kosta Kulundzic, Jerôme Zonder
and Axel Phalavi, the show explores the practice of painting, the feeling
induced and what it is to break the limits...
-
DEFINITION / [UTF-8?]‘Chase the [UTF-8?]dragon’ :
Hong
Kong slang.
From the time of Opium den,
the term refers to inhaling the
smoke
from heated drug placed
on a piece of foil;
term now
considered as more complex.
From the first high, to the impression of intense
euphoria,
everything one can to obtain that same [UTF-8?]
‘high’ as
the first drug try
out.

Chase the dragon
Vernissage le 8
Janvier, 2011 de 18h à 21h
jusqu’au 26 Février,
2011
Chase the Dragon : les peintres sont ils sous la même pression que ces
drogués dans les fumeries [UTF-8?]d’opium qui ne pouvaient plus
[UTF-8?]s’arrêter. Avec des artistes comme Dado, Peter Saul, Kosta Kulundzic,
Jerôme Zonder and Axel Phalavi, [UTF-8?]l’exposition, à la fois chic et rock,
explore les limites de la peinture, les émotions de la création et le fait de
dépasser ses limites. De jeunes peintres ayant le vent en poupe décident de se
confronter à leurs ainés et à leurs démons. Chase the Dragon propose les regards
de plusieurs artistes sur le dépassement de
soi.
