If I had to describe Tang Chan's work in one word I would say: distance. Even though she shoots portraits most of the time, there is a certain space between the viewer and the subject in her work. I stumbled upon her through a shuttercrack submission and fell instantley in love with her portfolio. You can see her work in real life at the CFYE "Spirit Level" exposition in Amsterdam during this month. Now first a interview with the great Tang herself.
So you might have heard something buzzing about a CFYE event in your school corridors. We don't know where it's coming from but we already heard rumors about stripclubs and people asking if they can join the afterparty @ Kaymir's place if they bring a keg. Well let me tell you the real deal then! The 7th of November it's time for 'Lift', a monthly party/club night which is thrown in Restaurant/Lounge/Club/ Canvas (Amsterdam). This edition will be a special one as it's part of the official Museumnight afterparties! CFYE will be responsible for the art exposition that will be up in Canvas for a month, so at the same time the 7th of November is also our exposition opener!
They are just like us... But they have just one eye, mostly plastic and toy. You can meet them in every corner of our planet, strictly filmivorous. There are several types of them: Holga Sapiens, LC-A Sapiens, LUBI Sapiens and others. Scientists are not sure yet about the influence of that beings on the society, that's why we are presenting to your attention little research of some proofs of existing of Lomo Sapiens. While art critics are still deciding if they are interested in this issue, let's face it — Lomo people exist. Their credo: "Don't think, just shoot!", nevertheless they proved their right to be considered to a separate subspecies of wise man. It's just their brains are specific and vignetted.
Recently, the Xstreets collective showed their work in a day full activities. With an Umbrella roadshow, an exhibition at the Chiellerie and an after party in the 301, the boys and girls from Xstreet showed they had more to offer that day then just free beer. Did you say free beer? Yes free beer, so CFYE was at the scene to make a few snapshots and have a chat with the collective! |
