Nipped over to Hong Kong yesterday to see the Anthony Lister show at a small gallery. His first time in Hong Kong. Had little promotion so no one really there Mikey Dread tipped me off as heard or seen nothing here. Advertised prints but they did not have any. Had a pink ballet dancer theme to the show. He was there of course and was giving the gallery organizer who was Japanese a bit of flack. Here's some pics of the works.

Anthony Lister inHong Kong, by brendan1985 on Dec 2, 2012 10:57:54 GMT 1, A few of these pieces are old works from his 2010 show in torono He has painted in some ballerinas to fit the rest of the works. This seems weird for Lister i get the feeling he didn't really want to do this show. www.fecalface.com/SF/index.php/good-stuff/1926-anthony-lister-preview

But very interesting from Brendan that its tweaks from an old show audit were

It should be the gallery giving it to him for the look of the show. Do something right or not at all. I also can't stand when people in general don't use discretion when arguing with someone. But since you happen to catch the conversation..... what'd ya here? ;D

Anthony Lister inHong Kong, by johnnyh on Dec 2, 2012 23:20:12 GMT 1, Nothing in particular to be honest he was just being a bit of an arse. Do this do that etc why isn't this why isn't that. Also about the promotion as only a couple of people there.
Complaining because they had wine and snacks even (I was slugging an chaffing away!!!). Wouldn't mind but he arrived an hour late.
To be fair to him it was pretty poor all round.

Anthony Lister inHong Kong, by rsj on Dec 3, 2012 1:01:43 GMT 1, Regarding pricing at exhibitions of western artists in Hong Kong, I have never encountered one that you could not find the same paintings/prints cheaper in Europe/US. The galleries seem to think their potential customers are all dumb...

Anthony Lister inHong Kong, by johnnyh on Dec 3, 2012 6:14:00 GMT 1, That's spot on RSJ. They are always over priced I think in the galleries in HK. I have never bought anything from them. Have bought from Chinese Galleries but that was Chinese work but never western. Not sure they realize how small the world is.
But do like to visit the shows when on so it's a shame really.

Anthony Lister inHong Kong, by brendan1985 on Dec 3, 2012 6:44:06 GMT 1, I would also be interested to know if he re-dated the verso. Or left it as is, did it mention a date on the sales sheet?
