Openings: José Parlá - “Reading Through Seeing†@ Ooi Botos Gallery (Hong Kong)
Last night, AM was lucky enough to be on hand to experience José Parlá’s latest body of work “Reading Through Seeing” (previewed) which opened in Hong Kong at Oos Botos Gallery. Parla’s much anticipated return to Asia didn’t disappoint as he produced a gorgeous body of work on a variety of mediums: canvas, wood, ceramic and paper.
Parla blurs the line between contemporary and urban art through a hybrid technique derived from his signature calligraphic style and gritty street influence. Many of Parla’s pieces reflect a refined grace and beauty blended onto tangible urban-scapes he creates. If you’re lucky enough to cruise by Hong Kong, this is definitely one show that’s worth the journey.
