Buddha Meets Ganesha: An Aesthetic Congregation of Two Global Icons
);)
description:3 - 16 May 2012A special conceptual exhibition of contemporary art in Singapore We have no doubt that you are indeed acquainted with the visual possibilities deriving from Ganesha, the popular Hindu god, and the Buddha, the ultimate epitome of divine/spiritual enlightenment. However, this contemporary art exhibition is neither about the re-contextualisation of traditional images nor is it about any controversial comparison between religious/mythological beliefs. Indeed, this first-of-its-kind exhibition, which was conceptualised two years ago, is about the participating artists' creative yet sensitive treatment of the many perspectives in which the mighty concepts of the two global cultural icons can combine aesthetically on a philosophical, art historical or a purely visual basis. Official Opening Preview: 3 May 2012 (Thursday), 7pm Exhibition Duration: 3 May 2012 – 16 May 2012 Venue: The Gallery of Gnani Arts #01-17, Tanglin Shopping Centre 19, Tanglin Road Singapore 247909 |
