Lucie Chang Fine Arts in Hong Kong, China, in collaboration with Galeria Cuatro in Valencia, Spain, present a group exhibition of Spanish New Wave artists ‘Global Children’ at Lucie Chang Fine Arts Hong Kong, China from 15th October until December 2022.
The group show will present over 20 works by Spanish artists David de Limón (1981), Julieta XLF (1982) and Jordi Machí (1983). It is the first time these artists will be shown in Asia, and is a turning point for the newly coined ‘Spanish New Wave’ movement in the region.
The exhibition aspires to exalt multiculturalism, credit globalisation and uncover social influences between the Spanish artists and Asian audiences. The fictional characters, and cartoons in their art are not accidental, they are an unequivocal result of Western artists being inspired by Asian expression. A sense of cultural curiosity for anime and manga subcultures comes through, making works from major cultural events like the Internet Age, ‘Kawaii’, Nintendo, and Super Mario. A fantastical sense and vibrant style create comparisons between the Spanish visual artists, meant to draw appreciation from adults and elderly, to children.
