Through 40 artworks spanning a wide range of artistic genres, including painting, sculpture, video, photography, and site-specific installations, the Emerald City exhibition explored how geometry – literally meaning “measurement of the Earth (geo)” – has influenced our imagination of the world.
The idea takes shape from the Neo-Geometric Conceptualism (“Neo-Geo”) art movement of the ‘80s and ‘90s that saw a large-scale reimagining of global connectedness based on geometric patterns.
Emerald City shows the persistence of geometric thoughts in contemporary society by juxtaposing works of renowned artists like Ashley Bickerton, Carl F. Cheng, Keiichi Tanaami, with younger artists like Nik Kosmas, Oscar Chan Yik Long, Mountain River Jump!, Zhang Ruyi and Doris Wong Wai Yin.
Talking to the press, Adrian Cheng, Founder and Honorary Chairman, the K11 Art Foundation, says, “K11 Art Foundation has evolved into a dynamic and autonomous cultural entity within its own right. We are delighted to have forged connections between Chinese contemporary artists and major global institutions in recent years and look forward to continuing to nurture these ongoing relationships. Now is the right time for the Foundation to bring to the fore the extensive academic insight that has been cultivated internally since our inauguration in 2010 and to bring together an exhibition that illustrates the breadth of expertise and unique cultural perspective offered by the Foundation.”
