TOOLS OF THE TRADE

8 May – 6 June, 2021

Tools of the Trade frames the history of street art and graffiti through the lens of the tools that artists use to create their work. Dating back to the mid 1950s and up to today, the exhibition includes everything from markers, spray cans and stickers, to DIY mops, stencils, stamps, paste ups, and fire extinguishers, to more technological tools like drones and laser guided projection. It is an attempt to highlight the wide range of tools used throughout history, their evolution, and the ingenuity of the artists that make and use them.

Tools of the Trade 塗鴉工具展透過藝術家的視角,呈現並展出街頭藝術及塗鴉的歷史。 本展覽展出從50年代至今所有關於街頭藝術和塗鴉的工具。 當中有箱頭筆,噴漆,貼紙,自製工具,模板,蓋章,海報,改良式滅火筒,到涉及科技的無人機和雷射投影器等等。 希望以展示部分街頭藝術與塗鴉歷史中大眾和有趣的工具,從而突出街頭藝術家在時代的變遷及進步中如何演化出獨特的技巧與個性。
