SUMMARY:A Place That Is Never on the Map Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Cai Guojie’s artworks might seem disparate at first glance\, yet they are always means with which he ponders and probes culture\, creations made from deconstruction and reconstruction. \nPainted in vivid colors\, landmarks in Macau such as St. Dominic’s Church and Rua da Cunha seem to wear the western skins in the paintings\, though in fact are built of the skeleton of ancient Chinese calligraphy. To put it precisely\, Cai always writes\, not paints\, his watercolor pieces; they are sigils of culture. \nTrained in installation art\, Cai is also fascinated by deconstruction and reconstruction. In the painting installation “St. Dominic’s Church”\, he decodes the lines and color patches within the painting and reproduces in three-dimensional space a new church\, like a strange stainless-steel bonsai. Lines in disarray\, layers cut out and reorganized\, the appearance of the object is shattered. In this grotesque anatomy\, his artistic statement comes to light forthright. \nPreviously in the “Half-Field Plan”\, Cai\, served as a boundary manager\, auctioned these spaces to participants and sparked a discussion on land ownership and use right. Here he becomes a worker who collects dust and grits between the Portuguese calçadas outside the gallery\, with which he welds into a weight\, the essential measurement tool for scales in ancient China. Interestingly\, “Quan”\, or weight\, can be literally translated as “power” or “right” in Chinese. Now the trivial dirt between tiny cracks can actually hold sway. Perhaps\, the purest form of power can only be found in the most marginal space where no one touches. Always cocooning reason with beauty\, Cai Guojie’s artworks are vessels of his unwavering position for culture\, which he holds dear and never compromises. \nWhen: July 20–August 22\, 2020 \nWhere: Creative Macau–Center for Creative Studies\, G/F Macau Cultural Centre Building\, Avenida Xian Xing Hai\, Macau \nHow much: Free admission \nFor more information\, check the event’s Facebook page

SUMMARY:"Dino Art Toy BOOM" Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:This exhibition can be divided into three parts. The first part is a timeline. Including Siomeng’s growth\, experience\, the birth of Dino and OO Adventure\, future trends\, and so on. This is a process of self-examination\, it turns out that it was not an impulse to devote himself to toy creation\, but the past experience and accumulation that made today’s creation a reality. The second part is some artworks that presented on different media\, materials\, and manifestations. \nThe last part\, cooperating with 30 creative units in different fields of the world. This is an experiment that tries to find out the limit of art toys. Artists have used over 50 types of materials on their cooperation works and explore the various possibilities of art toys. Everyone enjoys the process of “playing” and attracts people who look forward to the finished product. \n“Dino” is the protagonist in the original story “OO Adventure” created by Macau artist: Siomeng Chan. “Art toy” is a new artistic expression that presented on toys\, and originated in Hong Kong in the 1990s. “BOOM” means an explosion. It gives people a feeling of naughtiness and liveliness which is one of the motivations of Siomeng’s creation. On the other side\, it is a process from 0 to 1\, and there has never been an art toy exhibition in Macau. This is the process of “none” to “being”. “BOOM” is a starting point\, a beginning in Macau. \nThe artist\, Siomeng Chan\, loves nature\, to travel and to create. Through the process of understanding the culture\, life\, art\, and happiness of different places\, he understands himself and others more\, thereby to perform better creation. Longing to travel around the world in one day. \nWhen: July 27–August 29\, 2020 \nWhere: At Light\, 1 Pátio do Padre Narciso\, Macau \nHow much: Free admission \nFor more information\, call +853 6595 7203 or check the event’s Facebook page

SUMMARY:Uncertainties: PRD Post-pandemic Contemporary Art Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:The exhibition Uncertainties: PRD Post-pandemic Contemporary Art Exhibition explores this 2020’s most problematic and worldwide theme: the coronavirus pandemic. According to the curator\, it’s a reflection of the future and what it may represent for nations all over the world. \n“”Post-pandemic” era refers to the adaptation period that we prepare to coexist with the virus\, with all the uncertainties of the past and present and the future. The best-case scenario we can hope for is\, a vaccine would be found and the pandemic would be fully contained in the near future. On the other hand\, the most pessimistic\, worst-case scenario could be: the coronavirus mutates and yet we fail to develop a vaccine and the outbreak spikes again. How can we predict these? Meanwhile\, in any case\, in the context of today’s global geopolitics\, everything is uncertain and uncertainty is everything. \nIn the exhibition\, four sections crisscrossing each other\, altogether creating the exhibition’s “temperament” in a mysterious way.

SUMMARY:“I’ll Be Gone You’ll Be Gone” – Works by Yves Étienne Sonolet
DESCRIPTION:Featured image above: “Until the End of Time”\, by Yves Étienne Sonolet \nYves Etienne Sonolet is a French visual artist working with video and installation. He has settled in Macau since 2008. In his work\, he has a strong interest in questioning cultural identity and dissecting the urban environment\, which he expresses through exhibitions\, multimedia creations\, and adapting video for stage productions. \nIn Macau\, in the most densely populated region of the world\, in which Yves has become a resident for 12 years\, we are discovering our historical center without crowds once again due to the closedown of the borders from tourists. In the artwork “Possible Paths”\, Yves has created an interactive video installation in which as the audience approaches the screen\, the people in the video disappear gradually\, leaving St Paul’s Ruins standing still\, almost 400 years after being built. \nYves has a wide range of interests. Be it in sociology\, politics\, culture\, technology\, history\, and certainly\, in art\, his enthusiasm to think critically seems to be indefatigable. As an artist\, Yves has a remarkable talent to the imaginative and the humorous\, based on which he takes his creative pleasure by means of “appropriation” and “détournement” of usually somewhat boring everyday objects\, such as turning empty packs of cigarettes into a Karaoke singing machine. \n“As we observe in his work “Until the End of Time”\, the women featured on the warning messages of the cigarette packs opening their mouths to sing “Love me Tender”\, we are introduced into a strange process of communication in which no certainty or conclusion is to be drawn. Rather\, it is the questioning that confirms.”\, the curator says. \nWhen: July 31–August 28\, 2020 \nWhere: AFA\, 4F Art Garden\, 265 Avenida Dr. Rodrigo Rodrigues\, Macau \nHow much: Free admission \nFor more information\, check their Facebook page

It is not about a place\, they are about the people who surround us or things that we get into and inspired us”\, curator Mel Cheong says. \nWhen: August 2–31\, 2020 \nWhere: Jao Tsung-I Academy\, 95 C-D Avenida do Conselheiro Ferreira de Almeida\, Macau \nHow much: Free admission \nFor more information\, call 6664 8809 or send an email to melcheong7@icloud.com

SUMMARY:Involuntary Landscapes – New Photography Works by Hugo Teixeira
DESCRIPTION:“Involuntary Landscapes – New Photography Works by Hugo Teixeira” exhibition interprets the author’s attempts to piece together a historical and cultural consciousness lost when his family emigrated from Portugal and settled in California in the 70s.

SUMMARY:Exhibition “Pirates in the Waters of Macao (1854-1935)”
DESCRIPTION:Featured image credit: Macao Cultural Institute \nThe exhibition “Pirates in the Waters of Macao (1854-1935)”\, is held from August\, 2020 till January\, 2021\, presenting the phenomenon of piracy in the surrounding waters of Macau and the multiple meanings it had for the city.  The word “pirate” conjures up the stereotype of adventures\, romances\, cruelties\, and barbarities\, which is a set of social representations cultivated fundamentally by literature and the film industry. \nHowever\, with a deeper study\, one can see that “piracy” is a particularly complex subject. The exhibition “Pirates in the Waters of Macao (1854-1935)” is a project that aims\, on the one hand\, to encourage the public and researchers’ interest in the study and investigation of this subject and to give an account of the different dimensions of the phenomenon of piracy as a social practice in a much wider political\, economic\, social and cultural system; and\, on the other hand\, to showcase a particularly rich collection of documentation preserved in the Macao Archives. \nThe exhibition features a selection of over 100 documents\, maps\, and photographs from the Macau Archives’ collection that addresses the theme of piracy in the Pearl River Delta region\, thereby revealing the diversity and thematic amplitude of the documentation\, as well as developing knowledge about the multiple meanings of the phenomenon of piracy for Macau in the second half of the 19th century to the first decades of the 20th century. \nWhen: August 19\, 2020–January 31\, 2021 \nWhere: Macao Archives\, 91–93 Avenida do Conselheiro Ferreira de Almeida\, Macau \nHow much: Free admission \nFor more information check the organizer’s official website or click here

SUMMARY:"I Have Wiped the Pen on the Paper So Often It Seems Like a  Drawing" – an Exhibition by Rui Rasquinho
DESCRIPTION:The work presented in “I have wiped the pen on the paper so often it seems like a drawing” is the result of the New Visions project by the cultural organization BABEL\, which annually presents an artist from Macau and whose central objective is to support contemporary artistic creation as well as to produce a critical discourse capable of placing local creation in a national and global context. In “I have wiped the pen on the paper so often it seems like a drawing” Rui Rasquinho explores the possibilities of drawing. In the entrance lobby of the Orient Foundation\, several leaflets on xuan paper are presented\, a practice that is already known to the local public and which appears here as a prelude to the questions that arise throughout the remaining three galleries. \nThe show evolves to work with a more complex definition\, first through a diversification of the supports\, giving the role of xuan instead of wood and other materials used in construction sites\, presented in the second gallery of the exhibition. The third and fourth gallery feature drawing machines (one of which was created in collaboration with Rui Farinha) that pose a variety of questions: what is a drawing? what is an image? what is art? what is authorship? \nWhen: August 20–September 22\, 2020 \nWhere: Casa Garden\, 13 Praça de Luís de Camões\, Macau \nHow much: Free admission \nFor more information\, check the organizer’s Facebook page

SUMMARY:Unreturned Wanderer – Works by Leong Chi Mou
DESCRIPTION:Leong Chi Mou’s solo exhibition\, “Unreturned Wanderer – Works by Leong Chi Mou”\, organized by the Macau Art For All Society is part of the “Urban Identity” New Immigrants Artists Exhibition Series. Using Chi Mou as his pseudonym\, the original name of the artist is Leong Chi Hou. He was born in China in 1991 and moved to Macau afterward. In 2015\, he obtained a Bachelor’s degree from the School of Arts of Macau Polytechnic Institute\, major in oil painting. \nLeong uses the following methods of work in his creative process: 1. Transplanting contexts of images. 2. Explaining the reasonability of the ambiguous interpretations within a specific statement in a certain context. 3. The appropriateness of misplaced identity. Chi Mou is a person with a story\, and the story leads to creation. In this world where nothing is new\, the story is as the ancient poet has written\, “not supposed to be the same yet ought to be the same from the ancient ones; not supposed to be different yet ought to be different from the ancient ones”. Comparing to the story of Chi Mou\, it is an experience of painting and decorating the surface of a gold watch\, leading to paintings\, his recognition of the social decency showed-off by the gold watch is an admission ticket that he can hold on\, and the content of the picture also uses factors that are popular in the current society. \nThe language of expressions also adopts the techniques that are popular in the contemporary art industry (dislocation\, collage). This work led to mild criticisms and adopted a tension state of mind that both opposes and agrees so that the reserved paraphrase dimension is no longer inappropriate. In this way\, viewers are led to a space where they can judge by themselves and are free to extract any imaginations they need from Chi Mou’s works. \nWhen: September 5–30\, 2020 \nWhere: AFA\, 4F Macau Art Garden\, 265 Avenida Dr. Rodrigo Rodrigues\, Macau \nHow much: Free admission \nFor more information\, check the event’s Facebook page

SUMMARY:Surfing – Zheng Wenxin’s Solo Exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Entitled “Surfing”\, the exhibition features oil paintings and installation works. The artist’s oil paintings are popular for their graceful colors and beautiful brushstrokes. Thanks to the images conveyed by the “new medium”\, the pure visual materials in these pieces of art are elevated as the dominant elements of painting. \nThrough the immediacy and synchronization of the images released in different media\, a novel “time” experience belonging to both the collective and the individual can be realized. At the same time\, the contrast between oil paintings and installations investigates the mode and style of life in the Internet age\, as both the exporter and attractor of big data for mankind. \nWhen: September 12–October 31\, 2020 \nWhere: At Light\, 1 Pátio do Padre Narciso\, Macau \nHow much: Free admission \nFor more information\, check their website or Facebook page
