BRIC
The Evolution of National Power
BRIC is an acronym identifying the four major emerging economic powers in the world today.
As with every economic giant in history the art from these nations become the vernacular of the time; telling the stories of transition from one era to the new and current era. Here we see artwork by five artists each having represented their nation in prestigious international exhibitions (ie. Venice & Vancouver Biennale, Centre Pompidou, Paris et al).
Interestingly each of these artists, in their various mediums express a nationalist and often tongue-in-cheek critique of their homeland.
This exhibition is a small peep-hole on the changing times and a looking glass on the revolution in our midst.
