Exhibitions Dates: May 21 to September 30, 2021
SergioGomezCurates.net is pleased to announce a solo exhibition project by Canadian artist Drew Harris. This exhibition will be presented exclusively online as a virtual reality experience where visitors will be able to navigate online as if walking through a physical art gallery.
Internationally renowned Canadian artist Drew Harris is considered one of the most recognized artists in North America and in Malaysia. Two simultaneous shows of his work opening on May 21st at Art Central Hong Kong by representative Cecilia Koo and online through Chicago curator Sergio Gomez (sergiogomescurates.net) will give art lovers a chance to see his new series of work, The Peninsula Series 2020-2021.
Harris has worked and lived in Petaling Jaya Malaysia since 2006, and married to local artist and Educator, Sharifah Mazwari. Harris has been a fixture in the art scene in Malaysia since 1993 when he and Singaporean Art Dealer Suherwan Abu created and opened Taksu KL, a contemporary art gallery that showcased Harris's work exclusively for 17 years.
Harris has been instrumental in changing the Malaysian art scene, particularly in terms of abstraction, influenced by contemporary artists such as Franz Kline, Mark Rothko, and Willem DeKooning and subsequently, introducing contemporary abstraction to collectors and art institutions in Malaysia in the early '90s to present day.
Harris's work is in the finest collections in Malaysia, and in many corporate and private collections globally.
