In 2010, Hong Kong Arts Centre’s flagship exhibition Popping Up was a success. This year, we are honored to have the internationally renowned curator Fumio Nanjo once again, to curate Vision of Nature: Lost & Found in Asian Contemporary Art, which draws together eight celebrated Asian contemporary artists and features a diverse selection of new and original artworks including paintings, installation, conceptual arts and public arts etc. A curatorial concept developing from a naturalistic depiction of the environment will further develop into a metaphysical representation, hence leading the beholder to transcend the conventional meaning of “nature” while exploring an intimate connection between the self and the nature.
The exhibition features four screenings of the movie Uncle Boonmee Who Can Recall His Past Lives in agnès b. Cinema.
