Martin Mannig
Folkfuturism
17 Jun - 15 Jul 2017
AISHONANZUKA is pleased to announce the solo exhibition of new works by Martin Mannig, an emerging German painter.
Mannig was born in Freiberg in 1974. He attended the Hochschule für Bildende Künste Dresden (HfBK, Dresden University of Visual Arts) between 1999 and 2004, and completed his Master´s degree under the tutorage of Professor Ralf Kerbach, also an acclaimed artist. Taking his inspiration from a variety of sources such as traditional German satire and contemporary subculture, his paintings explore the vibrancy and flexibility of the medium. Their witty and friendly veneer conceals the artist´s examination of the dark side of history and it´s reason for existance. The characteristic layering technique used in his paintings is a reflection of this thought process.
This show marks Mannig´s first solo exhibition in Hong Kong. It features new works comprising of paintings an drawings.
The artist comes to Hong Kong for this exhibition. We look forward to seeing you at our gallery and hope you enjoy the show.
AISHONANZUKA將於香港展出德國新晉藝術家 Martin Mannig 的個人展覽。
Martin Mannig, 1974年於德國弗萊貝格出生，於1999至2004年就讀德勒斯登藝術大學( HfBK, Hochschule für Bildende Künste Dresden) 並在著名藝術家 Ralf Kerbach教授指導下完成碩士學位。Mannig的創作靈感源自多方，如傳統德國諷刺文學及當代次文化，他的繪畫探索了媒介的延展性及可塑性。畫中凝造的詼諧和友善其實隱藏了藝術家對歷史的陰暗面及其存在原因的考察，從畫面多層描繪的技巧中亦反映了藝術家對此想法的思考過程。
是次展覽為Mannig於香港首次個展，當中包括不少新畫作。藝術家將會出席展覽開幕，歡迎前來參觀並與藝術家交流。
