Investigating the social, geographical and political dimensions of conflict, The Art Of Conflict held at ADM Gallery features contemporary artists whose works address and reflect on the tensions that emerge from societal ruptures, ranging from urban disruptions to violence and war.
Showcasing artistic responses to some of the most contentious crises in the past decade by artists from China, India, Indonesia, Iran, Korea, Japan and Pakistan, The Art of Conflict highlights how video has increasingly become a critical medium in portraying the immediacies and complexities of confrontational issues, both past and present.
The branding we've designed for this exhibition draws inspiration from the notion of escalating tension; the tipping point before conflict erupts. We translated this idea through a subtle use of abrupt gradient hues transitions, applied across spatial walls, text labels and exhibition print collaterals. The strikethrough across the exhibition brand mark highlights how conflicts affect society and humanity, as well as their consequences, as portrayed by the art in this exhibition.
