The Pierre Lorinet Collection — SPACE
Fri, 10 Jan
|Singapore
Highlighting the presence of the universe, the exhibition questions how the natural world and spatial contexts shape contemporary art and our perceptions through elements such as stars, landscapes, human and animal figures, void, and trees. Space is as central to art as to life itself.

About the event
This third exhibition, extracted from The Pierre Lorinet Collection and held during Singapore Art Week, explores space as a reference to the 8,000 sq. ft. warehouse at the Factory, New Bahru, hosting the venue this year in the heart of the capital city.
Artists are constantly recontextualising elements of nature, humanity, or architecture to serve their language, expression, and concepts, allowing us to "connect," "feel," and "engage."
Whether the universe with Ugo Rondinone's starnight, Liz Deschenes' blue sky-like void, Sterling Ruby's thermohaline oceanic circulation, or Kenneth Noland's passage.
Planet Earth with Theaster Gates' study of nature, Frank Stella's Moby Dick, Latifah Echakhch's sunset, Tracey Emin's body landscape, Louise Lawler's minimal desert, Sherrie Levine's appropriated horses, Mimosa Echard's psychedelic clouds, Richard Long’s displacement of nature through carefully spaced pieces of driftwood composing his « Spiral », or Thomas Bayrle’s Geisha composed of the very same camera which made her visible.
