Horizontal

The Substation Gallery, Singapore

To this day, painting has for the most part remained entirely in the domain of verticality. This exhibition, the third solo exhibition by the artist Alan Oei, seeks to address this issue, by examining very closely the configuration and limits of painting in terms of horizontality and the position/ perspective of the viewer.


comunicato stampa

A solo exhibition by Alan Oei

Modernism, as an artistic cultural movement, called into attention the way western
Perception was predominated by a vertical axis - that man saw the world, uptight, erect, and then fading away. Interestingly, as modernity and industrialism - building skyscrapers and moon bases - propelled man vertically higher and higher, art history would take an opposite trajectory, becoming increasingly horizontal. Pollock painted on the ground; Rauschenberg mapped culture with his flatbed painting. To this day, painting has for the most part remained entirely in the domain of verticality.

This exhibition, the third solo exhibition by the artist Alan Oei, seeks to address this issue, by examining very closely the configuration and limits of painting in terms of horizontality and the position/ perspective of the viewer.
