Exhibition Period
18 May - 31 May 2023
Yrellag Gallery is delighted to present "Kitschy, kitschy, kitschy", a solo exhibition by Lonely Kidney a.k.a Alistar Huang. Through a series of visually striking designs, the exhibition explores the complex relationship between popular culture and art. Drawing on kitschy and humorous perspectives, Lonely Kidney redefines and reconstructs popular culture in her work, using satire and ridicule to expose the absurdities of real life. The artwork challenges conventional prejudices associated with fine art, embracing "bad taste" while pushing the boundaries of traditional notions of beauty.
Lonely Kidney's collection of fake-ad designs offers a thought-provoking commentary on the overwhelming presence of information that bombards and overloads our minds and senses on a daily basis. By consuming and digesting the thousands of data being put out every day, Lonely Kidney brings into focus the ubiquitous nature of modern media.
The exhibition opening will be held on Saturday 18 May ,2023 from 6:00 pm to 8:00 pm, and will remain on view until 31 May ,2023. The artist will be present at the opening, and light refreshments will be served.
Yrellag Gallery 榮幸呈獻 Lonely Kidney (Alistar Huang) 個展 --《Kitschy, kitschy, kitschy》。展覽主要呈現一系列視覺設計,探索流行文化與藝術間的奇妙關係。
藝術家以媚俗幽默的方式重新定義和重構流行文化,並嘲諷現實生活的荒謬之處。作品挑戰了與藝術相關的傳統偏見,不僅擁抱「庸俗」,同時也突破了傳統美學觀念的界限。展覽中還展示了一系列虚假的廣告設計,突顯了在網絡化信息時代下,個體接受到超過自身能接受、處理限度的大量信息。
通過這種非傳統且富有玩味的方法,藝術家探索了藝術的種種可能性。
本展將於2023年5月20日下午6時至晚上8時舉行開幕酒會,展期由2023年5月18日至5月31日。藝術家將會出席開幕禮。
