“If the world were clear, art would not exist”.  - Albert Camus

Through its lens on the world, art shows us a possible way towards the birth of a new Humanism.

Tang Contemporary Art is proud to present “A New Sense of Identity”, a group show where works by different artists dialogue like isolated identities united by the only demiurgic act of artistic creation. Identities are revealed in their creative act, as in the Cartesian assumption "Cogito ergo sum" - artists create and thus they exist through their art.

The slow but unstoppable process of modernity transformation forwards independent of us, and involves a paradigmal shift in the way of conceiving art - in the role of the artist and in general - of the fragmented collective consciousness. Artists’ individuality and self-awareness slowly re-emerge, prevailing over the collective dimension. And, when they still hint at the concept of collectiveness, they do it using the filter of a language that is uniquely intimate, deriving from their personal experiences. The collective dimension is recounted in a new way, filtered by the artist’s experiential heritage as a unique individual.
