Fly Me To The Stars 

In his latest offering, Malaysian artist Tang Hong Lee introduces an element of the magical and fantasy in his light-filled paintings, stretching our imagination with his youthful vigour. Little houses and trees floats on clouds (could be corals depending on your disposition) with goldfishes and sea turtle sneaking up and adding an atmosphere of revelry. Tang dramatizes his paintings with a layer of ambiguity with surreal effect. Art editor Nurul Muzamel Rasidi in his review of Tang's recent solo exhibition in Kuala Lumpur called the works 'Pop Surrealism'. Resplendent with monochromatic fields of blues, reds and greens, Tang's intent is to give a viewing experience that is both happy and exhilarating.

Stylistically, Tang's painting is very distinct from his contemporaries in his use of colour and imagery. His works are in numerous private and corporate collection.

Rene Robles. Master Artist In the 1950's there was abstract expressionism. In the 1960's there was pop art, and from 1970 to the present, a steadfastly growing diversity in art has developed. What all these developments have in common is that they reflect developments in their societies. Art is not static, it continually seeks a new way of visual expression. In the 1950's and 60's artists followed particular stylistic disciplines and their results were distinct. In the last three decades, however, diversity destroyed every form of discipline. Artists use recycled materials and can go back and forth in time from the ancient period to the present for their subject mode which can mutate or combine with others, resulting in a different art form. - Written by M.

Permanent Magenta Paintings by Dragica Milunovic

Dragica Milunovic It's quite exciting when you're knocked out by the visual impact of a painting. That's just the kind of effect we've come to expect from Dragica Milunovic's work and she certainly doesn't let us down in this exhibition. Here she offers a collection of fourteen works, ranging in size from 150 cm square to 5 cm square, each composed of cross-hatched lines made by the point of a small brush dipped in tints and tones of a single colour. - From a 2007 exhibition review (partial) by Judith McGrath.
