Sin Sin Fine Art, Annex, Hong Kong, HK Hong Kong Sin Sin Fine Art, Annex in Hong Kong will show Stephanie Sin and Damon Tong - in - attic from January 8 through February 21, 2009. 'In recent years art creation with social issues coupled with government's expectations on creative industry and West Kowloon have again attracted the attention of the media. However, 'Installation Art' in the mid 90s and the trend of 'Art Space' that followed reflect that the artistic trend has turned from pure aesthetics to humanist concerns about the society. Thus recent local development and changes in painting could only be reflected in the art gallery exhibitions rendering the art galleries a new space for the release of paintings apart from the 'Art Space'. - Jeff Leung - Read Indepth Article at http://www.absolutearts.com
