KKG Colours Homepage

This website will be dedicated to artistic endeavours that tickle our fancy. So far, items from our artist friends (who exhibited with us previously in Penang)  will be uploaded, and we hope to obtain a large series of photos from our previous exhibitions at KKG in Georgetown, Penang to illustrate the range of our exhibitions. Expected upload towards the end of January 2023. It should also indicate our range and tastes. Initially we assumed that a gallery would be opened in the Balkans, and given changed circumstances (and the Covid pandemic which took away 2 years literally) plans needed to be adapted. We hope to be able to do ad hoc exhibitions, should conditions allow. In the past, we had exhibitions of sculptures, photographs, paintings, textiles and also promoted conferences and films dealing with artists’ lives or their work. It would be wonderful to be able to bring some events promoting the arts. Time will tell.

As the famous art critic John Berger wrote in his “Art of Seeing” (1972), ‘Seeing comes  before words. The child looks and recognizes before it can speak.’ In a world which is overwhelmed with advertising images, texts and soundbites, focusing on a few quality items, and concentrating on them, thus allowing us to see, think and speak sensibly. Hopefully, it will give us meaning, joy, a sense of life, reality and beauty/ugliness, and then we will have achieved our main aim. Meeting different ideas, colours, shapes, concepts, people and exchanging about them. And having fun! That should be a beginning.
