In Hong Kong during March? Well for those of you that might be, make sure you go check out this show, got some big names and preview images look real tasty! Don't know much about Above Second Gallery but we've seen quite a few Coates & Scarry shows and they've always been really good.
Trailblazers features original artworks by Angela Lizon, Carlo Cane, Carne Griffiths, D*Face, Joe Sorren, Lindsey Carr, Nick Walker, Nigel Cox, Pure Evil, Rose Sanderson, and Sas Christian.
Hit the jump for more preview images.
Here's the word from them: "From the creepy kitsch kittens of Angela Lizon to Pure Evil’s Pop Art meets ‘A Clockwork Orange,’ Trailblazers blurs the boundaries between the past and the future. Lurid yet intriguing, these artists subvert their subjects – magical creatures are made mysterious, whilst butterfly wings are used to adorn the skulls in D*Face’s ‘Flutterdies’ By using traditional medium to paint contemporary themes, or contemporary mediums to paint more traditional ones, these artists defy the viewers notions of the new contemporary art movement. Challenging our preconceptions, the artists of Trailblazers know just how to confront the viewer."
