SUMMARY:Abstract Paintings from the MAM Collection
DESCRIPTION:The Macao Museum of Art is temporarily closed until further notice due to having been affected by Typhoon Hato. \nIn the 1980s\, abstract paintings entered Macao\, playing a prominent role in Macao modern art. Abstract painting has transcended the limitations of painting\, whose initial themes stressed realistic representation. Basic elements of painting were combined partially or entirely in an abstract manner\, creating an abstract form\, influencing the mindset of painting development in Macao. \n\n\n\n\n\nThis exhibition showcases nearly 30 works representative of the abstract collection including installations with rich painting qualities. The painting media and techniques used include ink wash\, mixed techniques\, mixed media\, ready-mades\, oil paints\, acrylic paints\, etc. The artists have conducted outstanding experimentation and exploration on the integrated techniques of abstract paintings and mixed materials with successful achievements. The works display strong personal styles through the subjective abstract composition of shapes and colors or independent thinking with symbolic meaning regarding ready-mades. The variety of art forms has fully resembled the laborious navigation of abstract art languages explored by Macao artists since the 1980s\, whose works feature immense open-minded artistic characteristics of the Sino-Western cultural integration in Macao.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nWhen: March 12 – September 17\, 2017 \nWhere: Macao Museum of Art \n\n How much: Free Admissions\n\nMore information at www.mam.gov.mo

SUMMARY:Record of Life: 30 – Printmaking Works by Tuzi
DESCRIPTION:Macau artist Ng Lai Seong also known as Tuzi will have her solo exhibition “30–Printmaking Works by Tuzi” in AFA Macau at 6:30pm on Friday\, June 2. Tuzi graduated from China Central Academy of Fine Arts with a Masters Degree in Printmaking. She is currently living and working as an artist in Beijing. This time\, Tuzi will come back and hold her second solo exhibition in Macau. For this exhibition\, she will show 34 artworks from her latest printmaking series. \n \nAs a copper printmaking artist\, Tuzi is capable of producing copperplate paintings after many years of relevant advanced studies. She can easily turn an idea into a picture by skilfully using the characteristics of copperplate painting production. Her works are abstract and intuitive\, frank and straightforward but not rigid or affected – just like her real personality. Therefore\, when we appreciate her works\, we can feel relaxed as if the works are naturally radiating a healing magnetic field. We can always see a lot of life experience from her works. \n \nTurning 30 this year\, Tuzi has experienced many things in life: she has moved forward in life’s journey\, earned a master’s degree\, started her own family and also took some time to rest. She hopes to set off again with 30 works of this exhibition\, while also being a small conclusion – a sorting out of her thoughts. That is why this exhibition is named “30” and is displayed in the form of a crafts book as if a diary telling her life in pieces. \nWhen: June 3 – June 25 \nWhere: AFA Macau\, 4th Floor\, Art Garden\, Avenida Dr. Rodrigo Rodrigues N. 265\, Macau. \nThe gallery is on the Ground Floor\, open from Tuesdays to Sundays (12:00pm to 7:00pm) and closed on Mondays and public holidays. \nFor more information\, contact +853 2836 6064 during office hours or email to info@afamacau.com.
