Above Second is proud to announce King for a Day by internationally renowned Melbourne artist Meggs. This will be Meggs’ first show in Hong Kong following acclaimed exhibitions in LA, London and Tokyo as well as exhibiting artworks in Miami and Singapore.
Opening Party: July 9th, Friday, 6pm – Late
King for a Day is a new collection of paintings and screenprints that examine society’s celebrity obsession through the prism of our own mortality and inner duality. An energetic depiction of those who crave power, wealth and fame in both life and death, King for a Day looks at how contemporary media and social networking has accelerated stardom and increased the pitfalls that come with celebrity attention.
Look out for a Superhero / Super-villain’s fantasy after party at ROXIE!
