Monday 2 August, 2021
With the 8th edition of Affordable Art Fair Hong Kong just less than a month away, we are extremely thrilled to introduce you to our exhibiting galleries who are going to participate in the fair from afar.
This year, we will be having two new features for our international exhibitors. While Crossing Border will collate a curated selection of artworks from different galleries, remote participation allows galleries to have their own space to shine and rise!
EXHIBITORS FROM ASIA-PACIFIC
UTTERLY ART (Singapore)
If you have been to our fair before, you would not be a stranger to Utterly Art from Singapore. The gallery will be returning remotely with Andre Tan, the popular artist’s works and making sure you will be able to add his works in your collection if you have missed him out before!
Grasping visitors’ attention immediately with the combination of pop culture elements, Andre’s works are always sought after. One of his works was even our 2018 campaign featured artwork!
GALLERY TWOSTONE (South Korea)
It might be their first time to join Affordable Art Fair Hong Kong, but it surely is not the first time to join an art fair. You can surely have great faith in them to bring you some great contemporary art!
One of the artists Gallery Twostone is showcasing is South Korean artist An Maran. An has been exhibiting around the world including United Kingdom, United States, Singapore and more for over 110 times!
STUDIO-ID ART GALLERY (Singapore)
Travelling all the way from Singapore to Hong Kong, Studio-ID Gallery will be bringing us four artists from United Kingdom, India and South Africa, including artist Natasha Barnes who has been frequently exhibiting at Affordable Art Fair Hong Kong.
But this time, we would love to have your attention on artist Nidhi Samani. Practicing in Singapore and along with her fashion designer background, we really love the grandeur of the atmosphere of her artworks while the houses are exceptionally delicate, enlarging the contrast between the nature and man-made architecture.
VAN RENSBURG GALLERIES (Australia)
You must remember the energetic vibe of Beulah, the gallerist from Van Rensburg Galleries. Her gallery used to be located in Hong Kong and she has relocated the root in Australia now! Although this year she is not able to greet you in person, we are sure that you will love her curation.
As a New Zealand artist with a mixture of Italian and Polist nationality, Veronica Green’s work is revolutionary in the world of abstract figurative art. She created the magical atmosphere with small but delicate figure – some elements of the painting will glow in the dark!
T&B Gallery (South Korea)
Another frequent exhibitor of Affordable Art Fair Hong Kong, we are sure that you must have seen T&B Gallery from South Korea. Four artists will be showcasing their works, ranging from printing to sculpture.
Artist Byungjin Kim’s works combines graphic design, three-dimensional design, sculpting and carving. The work below forms a side profile of a person with only four alphabets. It has displayed the skilful techniques and we are truly impressed!
EXHIBITORS FROM SOUTH AMERICA
SOUTH TRIP GALLERY (Chile)
We would love to extend our warm welcome to South Trip Gallery, who is going to travel all the way from Chile to Hong Kong! The colourful curation has fully showcased the passion and brightness of Chilean Culture!
Themes of artwork includes portraits, still-life and abstract, we can’t wait to see how the curation will be like! If you are looking for a new piece to add to your collection or to decorate your home, you have just found the right one!
DIVERSO ART GALLERY (Peru)
Artist Luis Fuentes is known as portraying the beauty of interior and exterior space. Along with the large amount of realistic details and the openness of a beach or the sea, it is one of the best options to provide you room to breath.
Doors and windows are commonly seen, as he takes the portal to connect the spaces, symbolising the physical and emotion connection. Through his works, Luis wants to bring audience to wherever they want to be at, which is a perfect fit for all our homes!
EXHIBITORS FROM EUROPE
QUANTUM CONTEMPORARY ART (United Kingdom)
British gallery Quantum Contemporary Art never disappoints us to bring high quality and up-and-coming artists from the other side of the world. This year, they will continue to bring a curated selection to showcase talented European artists!
We are surely in love with British artist Rory Macdonald’s works as he just took us a trip back to the Renaissance period effortlessly! It is such a classic example of portrait work, but note, there is a contemporary touch. Is the lady in water hence the reflection beneath her? We would love to know more and see the artworks in real life!
GALERIE MAKOWSKI (GERMANY)
A German gallery is a little bit rare at the fair, hence we are thrilled to introduce you Galerie Makowski. Showcasing 11 artists, we are very much looking forward to see more from them!
To artist Hella Ridder, abstract landscape is a catalyst and a starting point for an individual to shine its soul’s inner light. The exposure and constant confrontation to penetration and emotional states tickle Hella’s curiosity, and abstract landscape is giving this emotional being an intuitive expression. While giving the viewers access to this respective emotional state, Hella also treats the various states as creative drive.
MARINE HOUSE AT BEER (United Kingdom)
Another long-term supporter of Affordable Art Fair Hong Kong, British gallery Marine House at Beer is dedicated to showcase British artistic talents. They will be bringing a series of UK artists works and you should not miss them out!
One of the British artists, Adrian Sykes is defined by his joyous yet intriguing composition. As the winner of Young Masters Art Prize in 2012, he was also being selected to appear in BBC2 series “Show Me the Monet” among over 1,000s artists. But do not take our words for it, one of his collector said, “Adrian’s sense of humour and quirky approach really tickles us, it’s provocative, imaginative and light hearted with a touch of wistfulness.”
TANYA BAXTER CONTEMPORARY (UNITED KINGDOM)
Tanya Baxter Contemporary is another highlighted gallery we would love you to see! Sailing all the way from the United Kingdom, Tanya the gallerist has a special eye on choosing artist! From avant-garde abstract art to classic but also contemporary art, you can surely find something exotic for your home.
With an affordable price, you might want to add a piece of limited edition of Tracey Emin to your collection. In case you don’t know, Tracey Emin is one of the most famous contemporary artist alive with her outstanding and outspoken style, exposing females’ portray in simple but intricate way.
