A Place That Is Never On The Map exhibition poster

A Place That Is Never on the Map Exhibition

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. Painted 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.

Trained 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.

When: July 20–August 22, 2020

Where: Creative Macau–Center for Creative Studies, G/F Macau Cultural Centre Building, Avenida Xian Xing Hai, Macau

How much: Free admission

For more information, check the event’s Facebook page

this weekend macau woodblock print association members exhibition

“City” – Macau Woodblock Print Association Members Exhibition

In 2019, two artists–one from Hong Kong and another from Taichung, Taiwan–together with a curator from Macau, came up with the title “City” as the association’s first exhibition. “City has no borders. It is not a country. In this global context, a city can only give you a little bit background of what culture you are, but cannot define the person”, the association explains.

“Now I look back at all the artworks that we have gathered–they come from Fukuoka, Guangxi, Hong Kong, Hubei, Kvam, Macau, Osaka, Shenzhen, Taichung and Tokyo, the topic “City” generated a more profound idea. 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.

When: August 2–31, 2020

Where: Jao Tsung-I Academy, 95 C-D Avenida do Conselheiro Ferreira de Almeida, Macau

How much: Free admission

For more information, call 6664 8809 or send an email to [email protected]
