Artist(s): GROUP SHOW
Date: 23 Oct - 17 Nov 2013
TAKSU Singapore presents 'Marking, Making and Seeing', a group exhibition by Argie Bandoy, Bernardo Pacquing and Nilo Ilarde. ‘Marking, Making and Seeing’ presents the work of three contemporary Philippine artists working in abstraction: a glimpse at current trajectories that non-figurative art has taken in this side of the region. As a post-war artistic phenomenon (both globally and locally), the exploration with non-representation has taken on various turns with each generation: from being overtly influenced by abstract expressionism and automatism to a tenuous fascination with the how non-representation can be used as a critique of painting itself.
