Show-Off: Collector's Exhibition
Collectors should be prowd of their collection and be able to share their collection with the general public.
This exhibition showcases a selection of works collected over the years, or even decades, by local personalities with diverse backgrounds. This unusual exhibition attempts to address the nature of collecting and prompt a visual conversation regarding cultural possessions by individuals with very specific and highly personal interests.
The collectors will share their thoughts on what and why they collect artworks and the significance of this long-term habit. In exposing the beloved artworks that adorn their most intimate space—their homes—some ideas on collecting art are unraveled. While aiming to promote collection as a cultural asset that starts with an individual’s initiative, this exhibition may lead to a broader sense of common wealth, healthy society, diversification of the local economy (art trading in general), and the nurturing of local and international talents.
The collections couldn’t be more different. In the same manner as three minds have their own opinion on the same subject, each collection may indeed portray a facet of the collector’s personality.
