Besides loving their dining spots and art happenings\, we sometimes just head there to take in the beauty and artistry. MGM Cotai’s Spectacle is the ideal place to take the whole family and show the kids some great architecture but also check out some artistic installations along the way. This time\, we bring you a series of lion-inspired deals that will definitely land you there more than once. \nMGM Art Macao is an initiative happening at both MGM Macau and MGM Cotai where these two properties will be filled with art and food for all to savor and enjoy.

Many artists have taken the imagery of MGM and the lion motif as the theme while combining the cultural significance of the “waking lion” from the Cantonese Lingnan tradition in their artworks. \nThe “Greater Bay Area Art Symposium – Contemporary Dialogues of Chinese Culture Awakening” was held in the MGM Theater on July 16 with an audience of around 300 guests. Top speakers including Pansy Ho\, Calvin Hui\, Wang Huangsheng\, Liu Guofu\, and Xue Song\, came together to discuss on how to awaken the Chinese art and culture\, and explore on its innovation and revival based on the current development of Chinese art. The symposium has also attracted over 140\,000 viewers during its live streams partnering with two popular online media platforms: Artron\, Chief Art Media Partner and Zai Art\, Official Livestreaming Partner. \nAt the symposium\, Curator Calvin Hui said: “MGM’s ‘Chairman’s Collection’ includes paintings and art installations from various important Chinese contemporary artists. Inspired by Eastern aesthetics while immersed in diverse cultural threads and ideas amid an era of globalization\, these artists create a contemporary expression cohering distinctive aesthetics of Chinese art\, blazing their own path apart from the monotonous mainstream discourse. Their artworks enrich and diversify the ecology of Chinese traditional culture\, hence helping to realize the creative transformation of the fine Chinese culture in the Greater Bay Area and contribute to the development of a Cultured Bay Area.” \n \nExhibition “Awakening”\nThe MGM Special Exhibition “Awakening” is one of the core activities of Art Macao. Curated by Calvin Hui\, the exhibition draws from the cultural symbol of the lion and interprets it through contemporary art\, in response to the longstanding historical and cultural roots and to demonstrate cultural confidence in the post-pandemic era.

Among his iconic animal sculptures in this project\, there is the Mr. and Mrs. Lion\, the first MGM Lion Family sculpture in his career\, which staged a joyous party with other 12 animal sculptures to bring happiness to all ages through art. \nThe exhibition “Awakening” takes inspiration from the visual and cultural symbolism of the lion and incorporates de cultural significance of the “waking lion” from Cantonese Ningnan tradition. The lion represents prestige\, confidence\, determination\, and strength\, much-needed characteristics in this new era the world is experiencing. According to MGM\, “In the post-pandemic era\, the waking lion stands for creativity and vitality that fuses ancient\, modern and contemporary art and culture.

SUMMARY:Frank Havermans: Infra # Macau_Artificial Landscapes
DESCRIPTION:This site-specific installation showcases an ongoing observation of infrastructure. Being mankind’s largest built structures\, infrastructure comprises an international network that supersedes national borders. Inspired by harbor maps from Macau\, Shenzhen\, Hong Kong and connecting them to Portugal (Lisbon) and the Netherlands (Rotterdam)\, the project became a way to convey the overseas relationships that have existed for hundreds of years between these cities. \nThe author has a personal or professional relationship with the chosen territories. If infrastructure connects people\, this storefront is a three-dimensional map that collides with a post-geographical affection. The spatial language of folded black harbor maps manifests uncanny views of an otherwise straightforward flat and generic typology. It proposes an imaginary transnational enterprise\, in which the white voids are merely temporary gaps that are soon filled as the built environment never ceases to expand. Hypothetically\, the ultimate iteration of this window would be an uneasy dense\, black picture. \nThis work done remotely was a special collaboration between Impromptu Projects studio and Studio Frank Havermans. A study model was developed and then replicated on the other side of the world by means of computer-aided drawing to ensure the fine-tuning of the full-size installation. Laser-cut plywood of different thicknesses was applied to the designated shapes\, spray painted and installed on-site by a local carpenter. \nThe artist is not present due to the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic; nevertheless\, his work has emerged for the first time in Macau and has been commissioned specifically for the storefront. As in all of Frank’s work unique in his spatial approach to form and site conditions—there is a limited time frame to experience and enjoy a glimpse of this international Dutch artist’s manifest. Metaphorically speaking\, the storefront is the tip of the iceberg\, with his latest monograph “Transitional” made available for consultation. \nWhen: September 9–December 31\, 2021 \nWhere: Impromptu Storefront\, 14–A Travessa Inácio Baptista\, Macau \nHow much: Free admission \nFor more information on the artwork\, click here

DESCRIPTION:In order to showcase the achievements of the restoration\, use\, and revitalisation of heritage buildings to the public\, the Cultural Affairs Bureau presents the “Land of Hope – Historical Archives Exhibition on Leprosariums in Macao” – Reopening of the Village of Our Lady in Ka Ho. \nSince 2013\, IC has been carrying out the restoration works of the Village of Our Lady in Ka Ho\, in phases. Before the restoration and revitalization\, the five houses and the former recreation room were damaged and ageing in varying degrees\, even being riddled with parasitic plants\, as they had been left vacant and in a state of disrepair for many years. IC conducted comprehensive structural exams and analysis\, restoring each building\, based on its original material and layout. The structural consolidation has now been completed. In parallel\, at the end of last year\, IC initiated the procedures related to the 3rd Group of Immovable Heritage of Macao\, including the proposed classification of the Village of Our Lady in Ká-Hó and the former recreation room\, as well as the Church of Our Lady of Sorrows\, more recently announcing that the aforementioned properties have now been inscribed on the List of Classified Immovable Cultural Heritage. \nIn order to better utilize and revitalise the heritage buildings\, and to enhance the public’s understanding of the Village of Our Lady in Ka Ho\, IC holds the exhibition “Land of Hope – Historical Archives Exhibition on Leprosariums in Macao” at the former activity centre and the adjacent house\, showcasing nearly one hundred selected archives and related materials from the collections of the Archives of Macao. \nThe exhibition presents a study of the development of Macau’s leprosy treatment facilities\, outlining the history of leprosy treatments in Macau and providing important traces for future research on the history and development of leprosy treatments in Macau. Meanwhile\, the exhibition also demonstrates Macau as a leprosy pioneer in the field of relief and rehabilitation\, as well as the spread of humanitarianism in Macau. The exhibition is divided into two sections\, including the permanent exhibition at the Village of Our Lady in Ka Ho. \nWhen: Permanent exhibition – From November 6\, 2021 \nArchives of Macao exhibition – November 6–May 6\, 2022 \nWhere: Village of Our Lady in Ka Ho\, Ka Ho Village\, Coloane \nHow much: Free admission

SUMMARY:Portraits and Busts by Tam Chi Sang Donated to the Macao Museum of Art
DESCRIPTION:The Macao Museum of Art (MAM) has always attached great importance to the gathering\, collection\, collating\, research\, display\, and publication of Macau artists’ works\, to engage the public with the development of art in Macau. Donations from artists and collectors are an essential source of a museum collection. For this reason\, MAM organizes regular exhibitions of the donated works to show both the latest collection and the appreciation to the donors. \nTam Chi Sang (1920–2007)\, an artist and art educator of great stature\, was known as the pioneer of Western painting in Macau. MAM has collected many of his works\, and thanks to the donations of his students in these years\, such as Chou Cheong Hong\, Chio Wai Fu\, and Kwok Wai Kit\, that gradually enrich our collection. This exhibition will showcase a selection of 13 portrait works from the donated collection\, including sketches\, oil paintings\, Chinese paintings\, and sculptures to show his enriched artistic outlook\, his exploration of portrait artworks\, and also to pay tribute to the donors. \nBorn in Yunfu\, Guangdong Province\, Tam studied Chinese painting with renowned local painter Li Xiaoshan in Zhaoqing in his early years and graduated from Zhaoqing Advanced Normal School. Then moved to Macao in 1949 and became a pillar in the local art circles since the 1950s. Tam was active in creation and was good at a watercolor painting\, oil painting\, Chinese painting\, and sculpture. \nThis section exhibits Tam Chi Sang’s self-portraits and self-portrait bust created from the 1970s to the 1990s\, reflecting his exploration and pursuit of artistic style and color applications through the self-portrait practices. His works also stand for the expression of his feelings. Tam Chi Sang was strongly attached to sketching and sketched self-portraits persistently\, reflecting his detailed insight and sophisticated painting skills. The exhibited works highlight a strong artistic appeal by interpreting the inner language hidden in the painter’s image. Drawing on the experiences of the Dutch self-portraitist Rembrandt in using light\, shadow\, color\, and brush-strokes\, Tam constantly pursued subtle changes in artistic language in his self-portrait drawings. Undoubtedly\, it was an important attempt for the development of Western painting in Macao at that time. \nWhen: November 26\, 2021–May 29\, 2022 \nWhere: Macao Museum of Art\, Avenida Xian Xing Hai\, NAPE\, Macau \nHow much: Free admission \nFor more information\, check here

SUMMARY:Multi-Prismatic Mutual Views: International Invitational Exhibition of Contemporary Art
DESCRIPTION:As early as 2006\, when Chinese contemporary art was developing vigorously\, namely\, at the stage of constant search for the identity of Eastern culture in the Western context\, the Macao Museum of Art co-organized the exhibition “Microcosmos: Chinese Contemporary Art” with the China Academy of Art. Regarding Macau as the platform for contemporary art\, the China Academy of Art and the Macao Museum of Art interpreted the proposition of the times from such a special visual angle. It is also from that time when Chinese culture was emphasized as the mainstream\, the Chinese and international contemporary arts started to develop and integrate continuously in Macau\, resulting in today’s phenomenon that different contemporary arts co-exist and vitalize one another in Macau. This was not only one of the goals for the opening of the Macao Museum of Art but also the unique developing direction of Macau’s culture. Furthermore\, it was also the cultural significance that Chinese contemporary art needs to exist independently. \nTherefore\, between the China Academy of Art\, the academic forefront of Chinese art\, and the Macao Museum of Art\, where the international visions can be transferred and exchanged\, there is a field of interconnection and cooperation\, as well as cultural experimentation and social aesthetic education. This exhibition is in a sense an academic response to the Microcosmos: Chinese Contemporary Art (2006)\, which took place fifteen years ago at the Macao Museum of Art. Taking ‘history of the present as the perspective of textual research and historical sequence\, this exhibition will question the current context of contemporary art in the country and abroad. In addition to some of the artists who participated in the aforementioned exhibition in 2006\, this exhibition has also invited artists at the forefront of international contemporary art\, media artists from Mainland China\, Taiwan\, Hong Kong and Macau\, as well as the emerging artists in contemporary art. Originated from different societies and artistic creations\, they have repeatedly asked\, verified\, experimented with these questions\, and put these questions into practice. Based on their daily social perceptions\, they have constructed ‘extraordinary’ social resonance and have used their artistic creations to face their ‘near future’ art responsibility directly changing from viewing the world to world views. \nRhythm #03 by Cindy Ng Sio Ieng \nTherefore\, the starting point of this exhibition is a way of viewing; therefore\, the title is ‘Multi-Prismatic Mutual Views’. The prism is not only an energy gathering of high-density information and images\, but also an energy field where various social realities and individual values\, and cultural genes constantly intertwine and collide. The exhibition invited 32 contemporary artists (groups) from different places\, who have themselves formed a multi-pronged and mutual- viewing art scene\, regardless of region\, age structure\, media approach\, or way of expression. The exhibition hopes to highlight the multi prismatic and mutual viewing art scenery of the artists’ experimental creative outlook and to explore new paths in the presentation and study of contemporary art through the professional team of the Macao Museum of Art and the academic discourse of the China Academy of Art. ‘View’ is the new world view formed in the current artistic context. It is also the mutual observation of artists from different cultural contexts. And it is also a window of ‘view’ for cultural exchanges and multicultural coexistence in Macao. Such ‘view’ is derived from the multiple combinations of various cultures from a global perspective. It is not only a game under the control of technology but also the reasoning of continuous self-examination of multiple cultures and history. It is reflective thinking of human life in the pandemic era\, and also the human being’s passion and hesitation about the future. \n‘Multi-Prismatic Mutual Views’ is a metaphor highlighting the artists\, accompanied by physical materials. By constructing a worldview statement in the context of artworks\, the exhibition hopes to confront the current reality of decentralization\, to constantly ‘refract’ the individual positions of artists through their actions\, to question the essential issues of art and society. The multiple interfaces of the prism reflect their diverse value orientations and artistic identities\, allowing the continuous generation and transmission of artistic energy with the continuous ‘refraction’. The exhibition will use a variety of media such as painting\, video\, installation\, and AR/VR to present the experimental creations of artists across cultures and fields in the age of all media. \nThis may not only be an exhibition\, but also a long-waited artistic ‘event’. At this moment and in this context\, Macao has turned her role from the local development to the blending of the context of contemporary art. It is like a polygonal prism. Under the influence of refraction and co-existence\, it has formed an angle of mutual views. From the perspective of mutual relations and under the circumstances of dynamics and blending\, the works will examine contemporary art in the multi-contextual artistic reality\, forming an artistic trend of mutual friction and stimulation\, yet constructing a new mechanism of art production and value identity in the future. Under the ‘multi-prismatic’ effect\, with mutual observation and establishment of artistic references and values\, Macau will become a multi-dimensional interactive cultural jewel of the new China\, which ‘lives toward the sea’. \nWhen: November 25\, 2021–February 6\, 2022 \nWhere: Macao Museum of Art\, Avenida Xian Xing Hai\, NAPE\, Macau \nHow much: Free admission \nFor more information\, check the event’s official website

SUMMARY:2015-2025 The KUBUS in Fluxus: The Study of Täubner's Cube from Cao Kai
DESCRIPTION:Artist Cao Kai published an initial study about Täubner’s Cube in World Art\, a journal under the Central Academy of Fine Arts\, in which Cao allegorically described the cube as contradictory\, paradoxical\, and inconceivable “KUBUS”. Cao has started an artistic collaboration with the Täubner family from the withered forest in Cologne\, Germany since 2015\, utilizing the cube concept left by Wilfried Täubner to undertake reconstruction — concept reconstruction and image reconstruction. The former is about busting the dependence of installation art on “thing” and its obsession with “ready-made”\, and creating a cube in consciousness with the construction of virtual thinking through meditation\, graphics\, voices (dialogues and monologues)\, texts (writing and poems) and other forms of expressions of ideas. The latter is a space basically constituted by the cube\, and it projects a visual intention with dynamic and static image recording and editing. The expressions of this intention include performance art\, noise art\, occasional art\, and other Fluxus actions and activities. \nThe collaborators participating in this art program by Cao include sinology expert Thomas\, dancer and performing artist Julin-Julia Täubner\, assistants-cum-art students Li Shixian and Gu Jianyu\, and art student Cao Yue that has recently joined the program. In some sense\, the list of collaborators also includes the late Wilfried Täubner — in commemoration of Wilfried\, Cao Kai has named the relevant cube “Täubner’s Cube”. \nTäubner’s Cube\, originated from the conceptual photography of “Cubes” by the late German photographer Wilfried Täubner (1940-1994)\, is a term coined by Chinese artist Cao Kai in 2015\, who has studied and made art creations based on this concept. Wilfried Täubner created a steel cube structure for his images\, comprising six faces that include two perpendicularly-placed mirrors and an open four-sided frame. Täubner placed the cube in different types of spaces\, resulting in a type of contradictory landscape images through the flat conversion of the camera lens. The open frame of the cube divides the space where it is located for the second time\, presenting a fragmented view; the surface of the perpendicularly-placed mirrors plays a dual role of concealment and reflection\, underscoring the effects of displacement and rough connection following division. Thus\, these create a sense of alienation from the unfamiliar landscape. \nWhen: December 10\, 2021–January 9\, 2022 \nWhere: Green Townhouses\, 55-57 Avenida do Coronel Mesquita\, Macau \nHow much: Free admission \nFor more information\, check the event’s Facebook page
