ShugoArts is pleased to announce a collaboration with TKG+ (Taiwan) to present a group exhibition featuring artists from Asia. This year’s theme is “Abstract”. More than a hundred years have passed since the word “abstract” became synonymous with what is novel in visual arts. Today, with the evolution of AI, we live in a world where all things appear to be paralleled. Art history is no exception. For this exhibition, we have asked each artist to create and exhibit their works in order to provide an opportunity for the viewer to discover the freedom inherent in abstract art. ShugoArts presents Masato Kobayashi, Aki Kondo, Lee Kit, Anju Michele and Ritsue Mishima while TKG+ presents Mit Jain Inn, Jam Wu, Charwei Tsai and Chiu Chen-Hung.
