繼法國、愛爾蘭駐澳門藝術家Chad Keveny之個人展覽《搞嘢》開幕後，牛房繼續邀請其為牛房講場現身說法，分享這位畫家在創作和畫畫時的心路歷程與狀態。並且，為了使是次講場更出火花，主辦單位決定「搞多D嘢」，同時邀請了剛於全藝社（AFA）開了個人展覽的本地畫家戴永寧同來「Jam一Jam」。在文化、語言和背景迴異的相遇下，兩位畫家會分別介紹各自的作品，然後透過是次主題《點解搞咁多嘢？》來與觀眾們一起進行討論與分享。不妨探討一下，畫家們是怎樣畫畫的？為什麼要畫畫？又為了誰去畫畫？

歡迎有興趣人士參加是次牛房講場！費用全免。

After the opening of the solo exhibition “Chad Stirs It Up” by the French/Irish artist Chad Keveny at the Ox Warehouse. Ox Talk has invited the artist to share with an audience on the creative path that he has undertaken. Moreover, in order to further “stirring things up”, we have also invited local artist Nick Tai to a sort of “Jam session” at the Ox Warehouse. Also a painter, Nick Tai has just opened his solo exhibition at the Art For All in Macao too. With different cultural and linguistic background, the two invited artists would begin the OX Talk with an introduction of their own works. And then there will be sharing and discussions among the artists and audience around of subject of “Why Stirring Things Up?” Let us look for some interesting answers for questions such as “How painters paint?” “Why they paint?” and “For whom they paint?”

The event is open for all! Free entry.
