As we prepare for our new exhibition opening in May, the participating duo of C&G Artpartment is holding an open call for art reviews. We invite the general public to submit critiques of C&G Artpartment to raise issues in their artistic practice. Through this ‘C&G Critique Contest’, we hope to engage the public and encourage other artists to be more open to criticism.

C&G Artpartment says, ‘Criticism serves as reminders and guidance, and can be a driving force behind growth for those open to it and with a high EQ. It’s a learning opportunity, as well as a process potentially leading to progress and epiphany. C&G has been around for fifteen years, and its contribution to the Hong Kong art scene should be felt if not seen. We’re not too stubborn to hear others’ advice, and we don’t mind criticism—in fact, the more of it the better!’

Submissions can be made in Chinese or English, between 1 and 100 words. All submissions will be presented bilingually and anonymously at the exhibition, where the audience will vote for their favourite. Everyone is welcome to get creative and speak their minds. The two critics with the most votes will each receive a signed work by C&G, so don’t miss this rare opportunity!

The submission deadline is Sat, 30 Apr, 12 noon, Hong Kong time. All submissions along with your contact information must be sent to info@para-site.art, with ‘C&G Critique Contest’ as the subject line. For further enquiries, please email info@para-site.art.
