There are a few definitions of what art should be – a painting, a marble sculpture, a photograph…
Maybe something more zeitgeist-y urban better fits the modern idiom; or something environmentally aware. Art, in its myriad forms, waits at every corner. It’s also waiting to be discovered in every can of Red Bull.
Having made its way around the world for more than a decade, the Red Bull Art of Can has unleashed a totally different sort of art onto the world by mixing creativity with thousands of Red Bull cans. Last year, the Singapore edition of this travelling art showcase resulted in a collection of masterpieces exhibited over a 10-day period.
The instructions were simple, with one rule only: create a work of art of any kind, using the blueand-silver cans. And the results were limited by one thing only: imagination.
Given such free rein, Red Bull Art of Can attracted entries from across the social spectrum. Delivery men to high-school students produced more than 70 entries, 56 of which made the final cut.
