"Ludus: Curated by Basak Malone"
2008-08-04 until 2008-08-31
NY Arts Beijing
Beijing, , CN China

Ludus is a dynamic combination of Western psychology and thought within an Eastern setting. Investigating how representations of "the other" are not fixed or anchored in any single meaning, but invented and re-contextualized across a diverse signifying field that is indecipherable. Through semantic play participating artists are invited to address the space between themselves and others, sites that include, but are not limited to the concept of "the borderline," the "in-between," "the similacrum," and other "liminal spaces". Each of the artist's work spans a dynamic scope of inspirations and influences. Featured in the exhibition is Maz Jackson who has promoted her work with an absolutearts.com Premiere Portfolio since 2002.

Also included in the exhibition are Angela Earley, Graciela Cassel, Katherine Wood, Malgorzata Paryzinska, Margarita Petre, Robert Freimark, Stephen Gosst, Tove Hellerud, Julien Vonier, Rene Breig.

From minimalist mark making, to complex expressive mixed media pieces that utilize raw materials such as sand and coarse surfaces, the works are delicate and passionate all at once. Deeply personal, the exhibition evokes their own subconscious while also revealing universal truths about the journey and celebration that is life.
