#VOTE: David Shrigley vs Joan Cornellà Exhibition in Singapore
For the first time ever, Singapore witnessed a monumental clash between art world giants David Shrigley and Joan Cornellà at an exhibition that ended in June. In just over a year, the darkly humorous clash between British artist David Shrigley and Spanish satirist Joan Cornellà has become the latest breakthrough racket entitled VOTE. This bilateral immersion in artistic input has resulted in a suite of eight silkscreen prints embodying the ironic and cynical dark sense of humor shared by both artists. In addition, never-before-seen digital artworks resulting from their collaboration will be a revelation unique to Void Deck.
)在六月结束的展览，新加坡有史以来第一次见证了艺术界巨头大卫·史瑞格利 ( David Shrigley )和琼·科内拉 ( Joan Cornellà ) 之间的巨大冲突。在一年多的时间里，英国艺术家 David Shrigley 和西班牙讽刺作家 Joan Cornellà 之间的黑色幽默冲突已经成为最新的突破性球拍，名为VOTE. 这种双边沉浸的艺术投入产生了一套由 8 幅丝网版画组成的作品，体现了两位艺术家共同的讽刺和愤世嫉俗的黑色幽默感。此外，由他们合作产生的前所未见的数字艺术作品将成为 Void Deck 独有的启示。
The work of these artists has become a bland and uninspired relief from the performance comics that most of us have come to familiarize ourselves with in their webcomics and one liners. In this exhibition, the incisive nature of the duo’s work, set against the backdrop of local fast-paced and repetitive lifestyles, becomes even more apparent and ultimately produces subtle visual cues that challenge the sanctity of social norms. Voting is the ultimate impetus for new-age opinion leaders, celebrity artists, and the public to be integrated into the conversation, with themes that convey a broader point of view while advancing the narrative that liberal philosophy can coexist within culturalism; its presence on the wall will serve as a stark reminder of what is possible on a daily basis.
这些艺术家的作品已经成为平淡无奇的表演漫画解脱，我们大多数人已经开始熟悉他们的网络漫画和单线漫画。在本次展览中，二人作品的精辟本质以当地快节奏和重复的生活方式为背景，变得更加明显，并最终产生微妙的视觉线索，挑战社会规范的神圣性。投票是新时代舆论领袖、名人艺术家和公众融入对话的终极动力，其主题是传达更广泛的观点，同时推动自由主义哲学能够在文化主义中共存的叙事；它在墙上的存在将作为每天的鲜明提醒。
At Void Deck, artistic performances should take second place to the fun and entertainment that presenters can provide. Visitors can expect a range of activities that complement the theme of the exhibition. In honor of its first foray into the local art market, Void Deck will also feature exclusive sculptures available only through the brand’s physical and online platforms.
在 Void Deck，艺术表演的形式应次于主持人可以提供的乐趣和娱乐。参观者可以期待一系列与展览主题相辅相成的活动。作为首次进入当地艺术市场的纪念，Void Deck 还将推出仅可通过该品牌的实体和在线平台购买的独家雕塑作品。
