| Another Side | Contemporary Artists' Dreams |
Curated by Brian Curtin, Another Side features 19 artworks that have been produced by the individual artists in response to one of their dreams. All the artwork have been created especially for this exhibition.
Another Side thematically explores notions of the unconscious in terms of visual representation that addresses unpredictability and the non-linear, questions of esoteric symbolism, and issues of how the personal can be accounted for publicly. Most provocatively, Another Side skews conventional critical and historical frameworks for interpreting the contemporary artwork. Instead, this exhibition celebrates the irrational, the atypical in terms of an artist’s oeuvre, and a resistance to easy categorizations in terms of given theories and pervasive perceptions.
Another Side showcases painting, sculpture, printmaking, video installation and photography, offering a contemporary view of ideas that were radically explored by the 20 th century Western art movements of Dada and Surrealism, among other examples. Against these precedents, however, and in the face of critical issues of globalization, Another Side explores the continuing artistic importance of forms of resistance to canonical norms.
