Message from the President

Her Presence In Colors VIII- International Women
Artists Exhibition – Beijing 2008 will soon
be held at the China National Gallery on April 11 to April 25
2008, 147
women artists
from different part of the world of different nationalities, cultural,
religious and ethnic backgrounds exhibit together under one roof. The
Theme “Dream of Peace” reflects a vision of global unity and
peace. This exhibition in commemoration with the 15th
Anniversary of Her Presence In Colours Exhibition demonstrates the
theme of the 2008 Olympic: “One World, One
Dream.
The aims of "Her
Presence in Colours" exhibition series are: To provide a platform for
women artists of different cultures and nations of the world, to
exhibit together for cultural interaction and goodwill and to allow an
opportunity for people to gain access into the innermost thoughts and
feelings of the individual and their common aspirations in relation to
life, art and aesthetic.
I remember 15 years ago, when
Conservatory of Fine Arts initiated the
first Her Presence In Colours Exhibition held at the Gallery of the
Central Academy of Fine Arts, Beijing in July 1993, only 7
women artists were involved. They are: Nancy
Koh Lee and Alyisa Lee (Hongkong), Yuen Chee Ling, Sylvia Lee Goh and
Sharifah Fatimah Syed Zubir (Malaysia)
and Lin Lin Lan and Chen Chiu Jhin (Taiwan). The exhibition was
jointly presented by Conservatory of Fine Arts, women Arts associates
and the Gallery of The Central Academy of Fine Arts. It was supported
by the Malaysia Ministry of Culture, Youth and Sports, Penang State
Government and The China People’s Friendship Association. Due to the
overwhelmed success of this first Her Presence In Colours Exhibition,
we have decided to continue the mission.
To date,
Conservatory of Fine Art/ INWAC
has organized 7
successfully exhibitions
at
Suan Prakkad Palace Museum – Bangkok in 1999, Clock Tower Gallery –
Sheffield in 2002, Manningham Gallery – Melbourne in 2004 and Daegu
Cultural Art Center – Korea in 2006.
The establishment of
the International Women Artists Council (INWAC),
a global network with sub-centers (INWAA) at Thailand, Australia,
United Kingdom, USA, Korea, China, Taiwan and Vietnam is to assist
matters relating to exhibitions.
The art conference:
Women Art for Global Unity, Peace and Progress to be held at
the conference room of China National Art Gallery allows the
international women artists to
Discuss their ideas
and insights related to the topic. The invited speakers are the
Chairperson of the various sub-centers. An exclusive exhibition
catalogue to document the exhibition and its related events will be
published. We have also invited Press and TVs to cover for this
meaningful event.
We hope that this art event that
promote the concept of goodwill, unity and respect through women art
will contribute meaningfully towards strengthening the meaning of
peace and harmony.

Principal Conservatory of Fine Arts
