Art Seasons Gallery is pleased to announce the solo exhibition “Sell Out” by Malaysian artist Chan Kok Hooi. As Chan’s first solo exhibition in Singapore, it features his most recent artworks and some of his best known pieces. In addition to his regular paintings, Chan will also create his art on Art Seasons Gallery’s floor.
Consistent in his rigorous style, Chan challenges himself on the art content of “No Beauty“; thus to ridicule the relationship between art and money. Chan’s painting reflects a composition of reuniting conscious and unconscious realms of experience, that the world of dream and fantasy would be joined to the everyday rational world.
