所以,有幸参观了好多好多的艺术展览,为这次的旅程增添了不少惊喜!
George Town Festival George Town Festival (GTF) is a month-long celebration of art, music, theatre, dance, opera and film to commemorate George Town’s inscription on the UNESCO World Heritage listing on 7 July, 2008. Each year since 2010, GTF transforms George Town into an exciting and unique platform for the arts, heritage and culture. The unique appeal of the festival lies in its well-balanced blend of local cultural performance and events with cutting edge international performances. For centuries, Penang was renowned as an international commercial gateway. GTF was created to put George Town and Penang back on the world stage as an international boutique destination for art and culture. International media giants such as The New York Times, CNNgo, Wall Street Journal have already covered the festival and the buzz for this year’s festival is stronger than ever. 资料来源 - George Town Festival - About |

我们一开始,并不知道有这个活动,只是在寻找壁画的过程中,
误打误撞看到了这间名叫 Sekeping Victoria 的店屋。
这是其中一项 George Town Festival 的展览,名称为 Domestic Evolution 。
我们就是被外面这个怪怪的 “椅子灯笼” 吸引过去的…… (-_-)'''
Domestic Evolution An exhibition of suspended mobile sculptures. Assembled from everyday objects such as plastic furniture and kitchenware, these objects are reminiscent of the festive decorations of Chinese New Year lanterns, ribbon-woven ketupats and Christmas baubles – yet hint at strange new life-forms developing in the home. This project is a development of Tim Craker’s 2011 work Beyond the Pail, which is installed at the Hotel Penaga. 资料来源 - George Town Festival - Domestic Evolution |
里面,还有很多我们再熟悉不过的居家用具所组成的艺术品。
我有被这些艺术品惊讶到,原来平时看来很平凡的东西,摇身一变也可以如此不平凡!
更令我们惊讶的是,这个 Sekeping Victoria 原来是间民宿!
参观的时候,就对楼上的床褥、行李感到好奇,而里面的摆饰,感觉上也像住所多于展览的场所。
回来上网一看,还真的提供住宿咧!
这个地方,处处充满惊喜!

从 Sekeping Victoria 走出来,很难会忽略掉眼前如此充满色彩的 Singapore House 。
Singapore House Singapore House is a pop-up retail space that will host Books Actually, The Gentleman’s Press, Monster Gallery, Sarah and Schooling, the film installation With-In-Sight, and a showcase by 14 artists from LASALLE College of the Arts. It will also host an exciting multi-brand artisan retail showcase, Keepers Goes to George Town, with bags from Ling Wu Bags, gorgeous dresses by atelier Priscilla Ong Shumugan, jewellery by Carrie K, timepieces from the independent watchmaker Edypoi and ceramic wares from the multidisplinary creative collective IEX. 资料来源 - George Town Festival - Singapore House |
这个 Singapore House 也是很艺术的一个展览。
光是这个 “Enter” ,我们就一直在找角度,怎样才能拍到一整个圆圈…… (@_@)
好奇怪,我们做么不会找人帮忙拍合照?
所以我们四个人唯一的一张合照,竟然是对着镜子拍的…… (-_-)'''
看不惯镜子里的我的照片,所以弄了一个 mirror effect 。
看得出来哪一张是 original 的吗?呵呵!
Singapore House 的楼上,是一个小小的画廊。
有好多的艺术画,也有一些我们看不懂的艺术品。
所谓艺术品,真的非得一般人看不懂的吗?哈哈!

忘了为什么,我们会走到这里。
但是很大可能,就是起因于这一张照片,哈哈!
Magazine Exhibition (MEX) It might be unconventional to have a reading activity in a festival, but that’s exactly what this Magazine EXhibition (MEX) aims to promote! MEX will showcase a collection of 100 design periodicals from around the world and poster versions of Malaysian magazines from the 1960s. To launch the month-long exhibition is a two-day forum with design writers and editors Sali Sasaki (JPN), Natre Wannathepsakul (THA), Yiu Sheung-Yee (HKG), Vivian Toh (MAS), William Harald-Wong (MAS), Stephen Poon (MAS), Nadira Bashir (MAS), Andrew Stiff (GBR), Huang Ya-Ling (TPE), Dr Zainul Rahman (MAS), Artakorn Intakorn (THA). 资料来源 - George Town Festival - Magazine Exhibition (MEX) |
走进去,看到就是挂满整个店屋的杂志。
喜欢阅读的朋友,真的可以来这里好好坐下阅读,毕竟行程一直在走,也需要休息一下……
这里的特点,就是入口处放了一本画簿。
这时候我突然想到,瑜珺会画画的不是吗?
于是把她叫来,为我们四个人画了代表我们的卡通人物,纪念一下…… ♥
很可爱的卡通吧?
虽然感觉上很对不起主办当局……
但是还是想说,这本画册是整个 Magazine Exhibition 最吸引我的地方!
里面有好多旅客画的画,还有留下的笔迹。
我觉得,这是很珍贵很难得的画册!

我们的 George Town Festival 行程,并没有到这里止步。
还有一项特别的活动,就留给下一篇文章吧!
槟城每年都会举办一些活动,来纪念他们在 2008 年获得世界文化遗产这个荣誉。
我觉得,这样的一份心,是无价的。
这是旅客们的荣幸,也是槟城人的骄傲! (^_^)
