Gordon
Cheung is of Hong Kong origin and born in London 1975 where he lives
and works.
Cheung’s paintings
capture the hallucinations between the virtual and actual realities
of a globalised world oscillating between Utopia and Dystopia. Spray
paint, oil, acrylic, pastels, stock listings and ink collide in his
works to form epic techno-sublime vistas.
Cheung graduated from the Royal
College of Art, 2001 and whilst a student he instigated and was
the organiser of Assembly exhibiting 172 MA art graduates in 2 disused
Victorian school buildings (Catalogue available on request).
He exhibits internationally and was in the
largest and most ambitious survey of recent developments in art
from the UK; The
British Art Show 6 and The
John Moores Painting 24. He has been commissioned for a Laing
Art Solo Award (Selected by Susan
May) for July 2007.
Cheung's works
are in international public and private collections including the
Hirshhorn Museum, Whitworth Museum, ASU Art Museum and UBS Collection.
