yee society is pleased to present “auwee”, the first Hong Kong exhibition of Andi Fischer in the Hong Kong art month, March.  

Andi is a Berlin-based artist who creates energetic paintings and drawings that simulate a child-like naiveté inspired by art history. In Andi’s works, the decisive lines and colouring are reminiscent of children’s drawings or wooden toys, there are all sorts of juxtapositions: people and animals meet again and again, sometimes to hunt or to fight.

Although the typical constellations of tigers and lions, ravens, eagles and snakes, knights and kings, often refer to some iconic historical art works such as Peter Paul Rubens’s Prometheus Bound (1612) in AAA LEBER SCHMERZT (2019), with Andi’s unique humorous translation, the characters and motifs emancipate themselves from their traditional models.

Gallery address: G/F, 24 Upper Station Street, Sheung Wan
