In this exhibition, rather than adhering to current art history categorizations, I would like to focus on artists who have, through pursuing concrete relations between their bodies and "reality", attempted to understand the nature of their world. 

First part stats with the artists of war-time generation determined to forge a new and direct relationship between the canvas and the body including Kazuo Shiraga, Atsuko Tanaka, , et

Second part of the exhibition would have the artists who approached to insight and how they sought epistemological proofs of their own relationship between the world and the self, through an intense focus on materiality, and the body including LeeUfan ,KishioSuga.

Followed this concern ,in young upcoming artists including Liu Wei  ,Lui Chun kwong ,KoheiNawa  practices which present less-direct yet arguably equally profound relationships with the weight of corporeality and the digital environment.

In the third part ,after Yayoi Kusama, Yoshitomo Nara and Ma Junfu open apertures leading from the imaginary to the actual, via subconscious image, amorphous indeterminate forms, and "children's", and vernacular perspectives, improvisation and seemingly off-handed, graffiti-like methods.

In this contemporary Asian art presentation, beginning with a sense of corporeality, the intense sense of environment and temporality, the texture of the un-finished and improvisational, to stimulate the imagination of the viewer in fresh new forms.
