Art today is an intriguing spectrum of intellect, imagination, and emotion that sparks dialogues about life, existence, and our world. In short, every art piece is essentially an expression of a human experience into something that we can see, touch, think and feel about it. We are dealing with art every second in our life! So, art is universal! 

 

Today, I would like to share with you the coolest art exhibition that I have ever visited in my whole life, for the very first time. To me, it really change my perspective about art exhibition which is something expensive and only for the elite.

"Never in my wildest dreams" said Dato' Sri Bernard Chandran, Co-Creator of ARTisFAIR. 

 

Never expecting that he will be branching out from high fashion into contemporary art, ARTisFAIR has been his personal evolution from pinning up Japanese airbrush art in his teenage years to being a serious collector of Southeast Asian contemporary works today. 

 

In his opinion, the dimension of contemporary art needs to be presented outside the gallery, in a more dynamic and lively way for people to interact with it, understand its relevance, and ultimately think that it's cool.

What you see on the this ARTisFAIR art exhibition is the master piece of Dato' Sri Bernard where he took on the job of curating the artwork using the "French way of presenting" by mixing high with low to exude personality.

 

He basically utilizing and treat everything as an art-form including using the original crates and boxes to frame the art and mounting them on industrial broken walls, with plywood and hoarding. 

 

"It's raw, cool and beautiful. It's a big space but with a real thought process and spirit of innovation." Dato' Sri Bernard concluded.

These co-creators expressed their thankful thought to Fahrenheit88 for offering them the entire mall to showcase this ARTisFAIR, and the artworks, almost carte blanche in terms of real estate. It's really not possible without Dato' Joyce Yap and her team's open and genuine support.

Introducing the next key collaborator, Mr. Nicholas Siau of Pop Art Pop-Up (PAPU). Nicholas has a small but well-curated collection of emerging and established Malaysian artists. On top of that, he also opened up his space to incubate interest in art with classes and talks. 

 

Just a brief introduction, he curated a show called LIMBO - "neither here nor there" and the concept was anonymous artwork by a wide range of artists, big or small with no size constraints, not limited by subject matter. This was before he owned PAPU.

 

"I wanted people to buy art because they wanted it, not for any other reason, only because they liked it". said Mr. Nicholas Siau.
