Seventeen contemporary artists have been brought together from around the world for the present exhibition, in order to suggest that contemporary art has moved beyond a certain stage of model recognition, and now operates through an ever-shifting inernational code consisting of multipies styles, schools and techniques together all co-existing through a fragment chorus of non-aligned sensibilities.
Two non-living artists have also been included to duplicate the hostorian's process of using contemporary art and recent art history to validate each other. In fact, however, their role is to amplify the notion of contemporay art even further, and demonstrate that art created in different eras with different cultural references can be as contemporary as last week. Among all nineteen artists, I belive there is a shared interest in pulling art away from its state of being defined, and in leaving the viewer with a sense of open-endedness, of possibilities confirmed nor denied.
