Entitled, \u2018Ivan Lam: After all these years\u2026\u2019 the new collection of works are a distinct departure from previous works which predominantly explored the silkscreen in it\u2019s various forms.<\/p>\n<p>Ivan Lam, being the mastermind that he is, conceptualized and executed these unique works over the last three years. This series of work consists of 10 paintings that have been painstakingly researched and prepared. Interestingly, when placed in chronological order, they unfold to reveal the tragic story of star-crossed lovers trapped within a world that has already pre-determined their fate!<\/p>\n<p>Very much a thinking artist , Ivan Lam is not contented to rest on his laurels, and is constantly challenging himself to elevate his art form to a new level. When asked which was his best work , his short answer was, \u201cthe work I haven\u2019t painted yet!!\u201d To keep him ahead of his game, and excited about his journey, Ivan Lam is always looking ahead, towards the next painting, constantly pushing the envelope and taking risks, and his new works, more than ever before are testament to this principle.<\/p>\n<p>An award winning artist who has garnered numerous art awards both locally and internationally, he was the grand prize-winner for the sought-after Phillip Morris Art prize in 2003, and was most recently amongst the top 10 finalists in the prestigious Sovereign Art competition, in Hong Kong.<\/p>\n<p>Ivan Lam is truly a force to be reckoned with.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"><em>\u201cIvan Lam: After all these years&#8230;&#8230;&#8230;.\u2026\u201d will feature at Wei-Ling Gallery from August 16th 2007- September 12th 2007.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Proudly sponsored by<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/weiling-gallery.com\/gallery\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/aaty-nipponpaint.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-7771\" src=\"https:\/\/weiling-gallery.com\/gallery\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/aaty-nipponpaint.jpg\" alt=\"aaty-nipponpaint\" width=\"178\" height=\"44\" srcset=\"https:\/\/weiling-gallery.com\/gallery\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/aaty-nipponpaint.jpg 575w, https:\/\/weiling-gallery.com\/gallery\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/aaty-nipponpaint-300x74.jpg 300w, https:\/\/weiling-gallery.com\/gallery\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/aaty-nipponpaint-450x111.jpg 450w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 178px) 100vw, 178px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n<div  class='hr av-av_hr-a04e9a999f2af535624a76d569713c2e hr-short  avia-builder-el-8  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_hr  hr-center '><span class='hr-inner '><span class=\"hr-inner-style\"><\/span><\/span><\/div><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-av_hr-9a4b51fdc01b8b13bd201ffe5054f031\">\n#top .hr.hr-invisible.av-av_hr-9a4b51fdc01b8b13bd201ffe5054f031{\nheight:35px;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='hr av-av_hr-9a4b51fdc01b8b13bd201ffe5054f031 hr-invisible  avia-builder-el-9  el_after_av_hr  el_before_av_textblock  '><span class='hr-inner '><span class=\"hr-inner-style\"><\/span><\/span><\/div><br \/>\n<section class=\"av_textblock_section \"  itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/CreativeWork\" ><div class='avia_textblock  '   itemprop=\"text\" ><p style=\"text-align: right;\"><strong>Read catalogue essay &#8220;Ivan Lam &#8211; Getting past pushing paint around the canvas&#8221; by J.
