Detail: The Philippines Ambassador to the United Kingdom, H.E. Enrique A. Manalo, will be the guest of honour at an evening event and talk to celebrate Southeast Asia and Diaspora: Breaking and Reconstructing the Circle, the latest exhibition in London by Singapore gallery One East Asia. The event takes place on Tuesday 4th November at 7pm at Gallery 8, Duke Street, in the heart of the premier art district of St. James’s.

One East Asia is mounting the show as a participant in the prestigious Asian Art in London 2014, an annual celebration of exceptional Asian fine art and antiquities from around the world. This is the third consecutive year that One East Asia has participated in the event and the fifth show that the company has mounted in London since 2011. The exhibition runs from 28 October – 8 November 2014.

One East Asia will present work by four of the most celebrated Philippines artists working today: Andres Barrioquinto, Renato Orara, Mark Lewis Higgins and Mark Valenzuela. Also being showcased is Singaporean star Jane Lee and the brilliant young painter, Anchalee Arayapongpanit, from Thailand.

Guest curator Loredana Pazzini-Paracciani will also exhibit a capsule collection of photography and video installations by four artists from Southeast Asia: Anida Yeou Ali (Cambodia), John Clang (Singapore), Prapat Jiwarangsan (Thailand) and Sherman Ong (Malaysia). The theme explored is the painful state of diaspora that each of these artists has experienced through significant periods of their lives being spent overseas.
