Beyond 无边

Beyond 无边 is a two-person exhibition that brings the work of Boo Sze Yang and Yeo Shih Yun together for the first time, creating a novel conversation between two artists whose work speaks to the antique – even ancient – past as well as to this metamodern moment in contemporary art. The display showcases innovative mark-making and painterly expression through the sometimes surprising use of unconventional tools and techniques.

Beyond 无边 offers a vibrant dialogue between the two artists as they engage viewers – and one another – in the space between figuration and abstraction. The display prompts a discussion about rethinking art categories, redefining art practices, and reconsidering the roles of new technologies and age-old traditions in contemporary visual art. Most importantly, the show creates a conversation about what painting has been and what it may become in this new century.
