“這是亞洲？”
　　2008年9月2日-10月5日

　　安杰當(dāng)代藝術(shù)畫廊隆重開幕“這是亞洲？”大型群展，作品包括來自中國，日本和韓國的頂尖當(dāng)代藝術(shù)作品。

　　這次展出的30多件作品每一件都當(dāng)代藝術(shù)的精品，各成一派。有的帶著濃郁的亞洲元素，而有的看起來卻可以是來自世界的任何國家和文化背景。

　　是否是亞洲藝術(shù)到底有沒有關(guān)系？作品來自某個(gè)國家是否對作品的好壞有任何影響？其實(shí)不論來自任何地方，好作品就是好作品。不管已經(jīng)是功成名就的藝術(shù)家，還是剛畢業(yè)不久的年輕藝術(shù)家，這次展出的作品都是當(dāng)代藝術(shù)的精品。希望大家能夠通過這次展覽意識(shí)到亞洲當(dāng)代藝術(shù)是理直氣壯的當(dāng)代藝術(shù)，是完全能夠融入世界范圍的當(dāng)代藝術(shù)，而不應(yīng)該是流行某個(gè)地域文化的產(chǎn)物。

　　這次展出的有以下藝術(shù)家的作品：
　　近藤乃聰，青島千穗，尹美娟，俸正杰，韓婭娟，松浦浩之，松山賢，梁彬彬，凌健，劉野，林建榮，繆曉春，吉本作次，盛奇，申英美，三宅信太郎，孫慧源，許亨，楊靜，楊茂林，楊少斌，大村雄一郎，曾令馨，張小剛，周軼倫

　　開幕酒會(huì)時(shí)間為9月12日星期五晚6-9時(shí)

　　安杰當(dāng)代藝術(shù)最早于2005年成立于倫敦，創(chuàng)始人安迪和王靜的初衷是把亞洲當(dāng)代藝術(shù)更多地推廣到西方國家去，同時(shí)把西方當(dāng)代藝術(shù)介紹到中國來。2006年兩人移居上海專職藝術(shù)收藏和顧問，并在一年的精心準(zhǔn)備后于2007年3月在上海的中心地段開張了實(shí)體畫廊。 安杰當(dāng)代藝術(shù)畫廊位于上海市中心位置和黃金地段茂名北路39號，威海路和延安中路之間，在一座保持著很多原有特征的老洋房的底樓，面積達(dá)300平方米。開放時(shí)間為星期二到星期日，早上11時(shí)到晚上7時(shí)。我們熱誠歡迎廣大藝術(shù)愛好者、藏家及媒體前來參觀。

　　“This Is Asia?”
　　2nd Sep – 5th Oct 2008

　　Andrew James Art brings together artists from China, Japan and Korea for this exciting new show “This is Asia?”

　　Many of the works in the exhibition contradict one another often showing what it is to be Asian whereas others prove hard to tell they are Asian and could come from any country in the world.

　　Does it even matter that this is Asian art? Would we think it is better or worse if we knew which country it came from? Good art should come first, nationality a distant second. This show hopes to highlight some leading works from the contemporary art world, be it established artists or new up-and-coming artists. It aims to show that Asian art can be as good as any art in the word and deserves to be called contemporary art rather than the next trendy country defining label.

Akino Kondoh, Chiho Aoshima, Dorothy M.Yoon, Feng Zhengjie, Han Yajuan, Hiroyuki Matsuura, Ken Matsuyama, Liang Binbin, Ling Jian, Liu Ye, Lin Jianrong, Miao Xiaochun, Sakuji Yoshimoto, Sheng Qi, Shin Youngmi, Shintaro Miyake, Sun Huiyuan, Xu Heng Yang Jing, Yang Maolin, Yang Shaobin, Yuichiro Ohmura, Zeng Lingxin, Zhang Xiaogang, Zhou Yilun

The Vernissage is on the 12th September from 6-9pm

Andrew James Art was founded in London in 2005 by Andrew James and Wang Jing to exhibit Contemporary Asian Art and to introduce foreign art to China. In January 2006 they relocated to Shanghai and freelanced as art consultants before finally opening their gallery in February 2007 in central Shanghai.
