Down the Rabbit Hole
by White Rabbit Contemporary Chinese Art Collection
Location: White Rabbit
Artist(s): Various Artists
Date: 1 Mar - 5 Aug 2012

Visitors to White Rabbit often ask whether our name was inspired by the white rabbit in Alice in Wonderland. In fact, it came from a Chinese porcelain bunny. But the Gallery does have a Wonderland feel: like Alice following the white rabbit, visitors encounter one surprise after another. And Down the Rabbit Hole contains more surprises than ever.

The Gallery will be closed from August 5 to September 7, when a new exhibition opens, so be sure to catch the current show!

Among the highlights:
- a dazzling installation made from discarded lamps by LuxuryLogico
- Tu Wei-Cheng’s “ancient” stone wall, covered with runes in a strangely contemporary language
- a video installation by Wang Duo that wittily fuses 20th and 21st-century notions of the modern woman
- Wu Jian’an’s astonishing papercuts, which transform myths into landscapes
- a giant sculpted heart by Wu Daxin that is literally ice-cold
- furniture art by Michael Lin
- Wu Chi-Tsung’s eerie shadowscape, made with light, lenses and wire mesh

Dive Down the Rabbit Hole for a thrilling journey from China via Taiwan to the West and back, with light, sound, comedy and colour—and imaginative leaps and twists that will stay with you long after you return home. We’re open Thursday to Sunday, from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Come along and enjoy—it’s free!
