Los Angeles based gallery Thinkspace has teamed up with Above Second Gallery in Hong Kong to present โLAX / HKGโ. This special group exhibition has been curated by Thinkspace to help introduce our roster to Hong Kong. Featuring two new works each from the likes of Amy Sol, Audrey Kawasaki, Brian M. Viveros, Dabs Myla, Esao Andrews, Joao Ruas, Linnea Strid and Yosuke Ueno. The exhibition will run from November 16th until January 12th, 2013 with an opening scheduled for Friday, November 16th (6-10PM).
Thinkspace is honored to be able to showcase the artists we work to support in the bustling city-state of Hong Kong, the epicenter of the Orient's burgeoning art market. With this special exhibit we aim to shed light on the burgeoning New Contemporary Art Movement that was birthed in Los Angeles and continues to spread out the world over, gaining momentum and winning over new devotees at an astounding rate. With roots firmly planted in illustration, pop culture imagery, comics, street art and graffiti, put quite simply the New Contemporary Art Movement is art for the people. This exciting and challenging movement is showcased in 'LAX / HKG' via the works of eight artists from around the world who create within a wide array of styles. Come discover your new favorite artist and find out why Thinkspace is regarded as one of the torch bearers of the New Contemporary Art Movement.
ABOUT THINKSPACE:
Founded in 2005 and currently located in the Culver City art district, Thinkspace was established with a commitment to the promotion and dissemination of young and emerging art. The gallery is a catalytic conduit for the emerging art scene, and is dedicated to the exposure of its tenets and its artists. This movement, straddled between street art, graphic art, design, and popular culture, is subject to steadily increasing global expansion, and is in need of institutional advocates. Thinkspace is positioned to create opportunities and a visible platform for its recognition and proliferation. The movement is young, but significant, and Thinkspaceโs aim is to establish both a curatorial forum and a collector base for its output. As an institution, Thinkspace is committed to vision, risk, and the exceptional talents that wield it. From the streets, to the gallery, from the โmarginsโ, to the white cube, Thinkspace is re-envisioning what it means to be โinstitutionalโ. As a haven for talent, and a venue founded in passion, conviction, and community, the galleryโs mandate is rooted in projections for its future longevity. We intend to be a vehicle for the talents we vet for yearโs to come, and are passionate advocates for their vision and their dreams.
