Gajah Gallery Features: Sabri Idrus

Sabri Idrus, Manoeuvre, 2015, acrylic on canvas 160 x 200 cm

Known as one of the most stimulating artists in Malaysia, Sabri Idrus creates work that lives at the meeting point of rugged beauty and sublime decay. In a country where figurative work largely dominates the contemporary art scene, he creates abstract visual experiences, exploring a range of methods to effectively deconstruct the institutions that define painting and art-making. Yona Arts founder Paula Tin Nyo writes, “As artist and laborer of Malaysia, Sabri Idrus has forged a physical, aesthetic and conceptual statement of a nation about to undergo massive change…each work behaves as a hammer pounding our feet to the ground, even as lofty plans would give us flight.”

Gajah Gallery Features: Sabri Idrus is the first installment in the Gallery’s new exhibition series which will showcase important artists in selectively curated exhibitions held in the Gallery enclave throughout the year.

Venue: Gajah Gallery, 39 Keppel Road #03-04, Tanjong Pagar Distripark, Singapore 089065

Exhibition Hours: 11am – 7pm weekdays, 12noon – 6pm weekends

When: 6 - 21 Dec 2015,
