“Life is a series of natural and spontaneous changes. Don’t resist them; that only creates sorrow. Let things flow naturally forward in whatever way they like” – Lao Tzu

Studio One Toi Tū occupies what was once a police station at the edge of the city, and Uxbridge, a Presbyterian Church in the eastern suburbs of Auckland. Today, both offer a new place for community as centres for arts and culture in metropolitan Auckland. Philip Tse’s two satellite exhibitions bring together a collection of artists whose works respond to our changeable world and the elusive horizon. In collaboration with Uxbridge Creative Centre (10 August – 5 September).

Featuring work by Alvin Xiong, Andre Sampson, Dasul Lee, Deborah Crowe, Diane Scott, Emma Langridge, George Grim, Hanna Shim, Jamie Chapman, John Hodgson, Kingsley Melhugish, Miyoko Yamashita McGregor, Nim Flora Chan, Paul Janman, Richard von Sturmer, Ian Powell, Philip Tse, Rozana Lee, Shahenda Soliman, Shruti Ytari and Wai Kit Lam.

Painting Now: Out of Elam features new work bysix recent MFA graduates of Elam School of Fine Arts. The participating artists are Diane Scott, Glen Snow, Ian Peter Weston, Jamie Chapman, Toby Raine, André Sampson.

What does Painting Now: Out of Elam claim of those it represents?  Contemporaneity is certainly part of its claim. The six painters represented here remain unproven as emerging artists within a contemporary discourse, although they hope to shape that discourse with their work. The exhibition maintains that painting still has currency within a culturally and technologically advanced economy. The claim for those showing in Painting Now: Out of Elam is to join their voices with many who make painting necessary to their ideas, who find that painting  remains vital, even after all its history, and full of possibilities within our present.
