The Cultural Affairs Bureau will hold an opening ceremony for the exhibition Beyond Space by Chu The-I and Kim Yong Sik at 3pm on Friday, the 16th of September, at the Tap Seac Gallery.

The exhibition displays paintings by artists Chu The-I (Taiwan) and Kim Yong Sik (South Korea). In the 70s and 80s both studied overseas in France and the US, epicentres of the exploding modern art scene. This cultivated in them a pursuit of novelty in their creations and an incessant study of the art of painting, yet each artist developed his own unique creative style. Through representational and abstract work, and other techniques, the artists reveal the hidden depths of their consciousness, as well as their attitudes toward the art of painting. They have brought thirty-seven tense and powerful works to the Tap Seac Gallery, outlining a dialogue between the artists’ different styles and illustrating their endless creativity. The Tap Seac Gallery is proud to offer these paintings, brimming with vitality, for the artistic stimulation of the people of Macao.

The exhibition Beyond Space runs from September 17th until November 27th, daily from 10am to 7pm, at the Tap Seac Gallery, located at Av. do Conselheiro Ferreira de Almeida. Admission is free.
