TEN YEARS AFTER: SKETCHES 十年以後—素描簿
about this book
關於這本書
curated by Sin Sin Man
edited by Yeung Yang
In 2003, designer and art collector Sin Sin Man opened Sin Sin Fine Art, one of the first galleries promoting Indonesian art in Hong Kong. Ten Years After was published on the occasion of the gallery’s tenth anniversary exhibition of the same name.
For the exhibition, 31 artists created artworks under the theme of ‘cabinets’—as both a holder of art, and as an object of special significance for the curator. Ten Years After documents their creative process: first the artists create the cabinets, then they turn them into drawings, and finally Sin Sin adds her interpretation with her own sketches and Chinese titles for each work.
Ten Years After is a lyrical repository of memories, notes, and poetry about the strong creative bonds created in this local arts space. It's also a celebration of Sin Sin’s devotion to collaborating with Asian artists and her journey to establishing the gallery, inspired by a coincidence ten years before.
Edited by curator–writer Yeung Yang and featuring essays written by art historian Valerie Doran and artists Putu Sutawijaya, Konstantin Bessmertny, Fung Ming Chip, and more, Ten Years After is a whimsical capsule of a moment in time—worthy of a revisit even another ten years on.
