SUMMARY:นิทรรศการ \"STATE OF THE RIDICULOUS\"
DESCRIPTION:STATE OF THE RIDICULOUSTuksina Pipitkul and Wantanee Sirip
 attananuntakulFebruary 26 – April 26 2015Curated by Brian Curtin\nH 
 Gallery is very pleased to announce the pairing of Tuksina Pipitkul an
 d Wantanee Siripattananuntakul, two dexterous artists who employ the v
 ernacular of popular culture to playful and provocative effect. State 
 of the Ridiculous explores the tropes of the ridiculous – silly, lau
 ghable, derisive – as a means of social commentary while also claimi
 ng the inevitable ridiculousness of much that purports to give profoun
 d meaning to our lives.Mounted across the gallery’s main space and H
  Project Space, the exhibition is an integrated experience that carrie
 s visitors between the delightful and ominous. Themes include the frag
 ility of social hierarchies, the flux of cultural symbols and the arbi
 trary attribution of value in personal and market exchange. State of t
 he Ridiculous includes a major new installation by Wantanee that explo
 res the often absurd appearances of societal inequality and disenfranc
 hisement.The politics of play and playfulness has long informed the se
 rious work of alternative and critical cultures, from art to activism.
  This exhibition explores the depoliticizing sensibilities of local un
 derstandings of play and fun as a retreat into wilful ignorance and fa
 ilure to face political realities. Oscillating between the carefree an
 d the consequential, State of the Ridiculous subversively demands that
  we look again at how we can imagine and relate to difficult circumsta
 nces in the contemporary world.\n\nFor more information visit http://w
