Michael and the smoggy sunlight

Upcoming exhibition in Milano opening 20th September, 2016

“The exhibition ends with a four-handed work by Adrian Wong & Shane Aspegren, a new opportunity for visitors to lose themselves – literally, in this case – in Alcantara’s potential. The room is turned into a complex labyrinth, making it impossible to reach the royal guardsman, whose hat and bayonet are the only things that appear above the hedge. The guardsman is just the first of the members of an imaginary court played by actors who pop up unexpectedly, turning the whole exhibition into a piece of performance art. Arthur Arbesser and Gentucca Bini made the costumes for the performances created by Adrian Wong & Shane Aspegren.”

Third-Eye Kaleidoscope is an ongoing series of interventions by Shane Aspegren (US) and Adrian Wong (US) aimed at tracing the development of the New Age movement and its related principles, beliefs, and practices. Initially taking hold in the West in the 1960’s and 70’s, New Ageism was fueled by an influx of Eastern philosophies, propagating an alternative to the normative structures of the Judeo-Christian framework. These philosophies were inevitably melded with various homegrown forms of mysticism, to yield its dizzying constellation of pantheistic and hybridized forms—forms that have now made their way back East. This New New Age is the subject of this present investigation. Hong Kong is uniquely positioned both as a place where many of New Ageism’s roots can be traced back to, and as a place where its modern practice is thriving. At present, the city is home to over one hundred yoga studios, an international center for transcendental meditation, six institutions teaching the practice of Reiki, the largest metaphysics and astrology center in Southern China, two autonomous schools of animal communication, and a New Age studies center which boasts over a thousand members. Three interventions are scheduled to occur during Art Basel Hong Kong 2016, made possible by financial support from the Hong Kong Arts Development Council, with additional logistical support from WING platform for performance.
