Wheels and Reels
by Forth Art Gallery
Location: Forth Gallery
Artist(s): Gilbert LEE
Date: 17 Sep - 27 Sep 2009

The Singapore GP Season 2009 is an event anticipated and experienced by viewers around the world. Lee Gilbert translates his excitement and vibrant energy into his “Wheels and Reels” Art Exhibition.

Lee Gilbert sees automotive technology as central to our culture and as a rich subject for artistic interpretation. Popular media –especially film- sets the automobile in a social context. Cars represent freedom, power, and
mastery: racing cars represent the apex of these desires.

Lee’s explores these themes in a semi-abstract style, drawing on the properties of materials to capture complex interactions among drivers, crew, spectators, and the elements of the vehicles.
