Hong Kong Arts Centre will present 2014 flagship exhibition titled “Unseen Existence: Dialogues with the Environment in Contemporary Art”. Working with renowned Taiwanese curator Rudy Tseng, the show will be divided into subsidiary themes: “Energy as Inspiration” where artists directly incorporate modes, manifestations or apparati of energy into their compositions, “Traces of Ruins” where artists visually capture the degradation of our earth and the aftermath of its undue exploitation, “Caring for the Environment” where artists employ various methods and media to express their care and concern for the sustainability or restoration of our land, and at last “New Findings”, which will be a selection of artworks that harbour a more innovative connection to our ecological ruminations and might even inspire new ways of thinking about the planet in which we live.
