Each handcrafted doll is a one-of-a-kind masterpiece, requiring significant time and effort.

First-ever survey of the duo's spatial practice and the most extensive presentation in Asia to date From a full-scale family house to a public pool, the artists present five immersive installations SEOUL, South Korea, Sept. 4, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- The Amorepacific Museum of Art is pleased to present Elmgreen & Dragset: Spaces. Amorepacific Museum of Art presents Elmgreen & Dragset 'Spaces' The internationally acclaimed artist duo Elmgreen & Dragset have continually redefined exhibition-making and the ways in which art can be experienced. Presenting five distinct immersive installations—a full-scale family house, a public pool, a restaurant, an industrial kitchen, and an artist's atelier—this exhibition marks their 30th year of collaboration and their most extensive presentation in Asia to date. Michael Elmgreen (Copenhagen, Denmark; 1961-) and Ingar Dragset (Trondheim, Norway; 1969-) have worked together as an artist duo since 1995. While many of their early works directly engaged with the architecture of exhibition spaces, their practice has evolved to focus on large-scale, immersive installations that recreate familiar scenes from everyday life. By placing their artworks within these environments, they challenge conventional exhibition formats and excavate the underlying values embedded in the places and objects that shape our public and private lives. Renowned for their large-scale installations such as Prada Marfa (2005), Van Gogh's Ear (2016), the duo was shortlisted for the Hugo Boss Prize, Guggenheim Museum, New York (2000) and won the Preis der Nationalgalerie, Hamburger Bahnhof, Berlin (2002). They received special mention for their presentation The Collectors at the 53rd Venice Biennale and was selected for the London's Fourth Plinth Commission in 2012. Spaces, the first-ever survey of Elmgreen & Dragset's spatial practice, presents five immersive space-specific installations that feature a combination of existing works and new works by the artists. The family house, titled Shadow House, extends the artist duo's investigation on the idea of home by presenting an actual architectural entity. The public swimming pool, the leitmotif of Elmgreen & Dragset's practice is a remark on disappearing communal civic spaces. The Cloud, the high-end restaurant may serve as a commentary on how the culinary experience are now consumed on both a sensorial and digital level. During regular opening hours, it will appear deserted except for a lifelike figure of a young woman seemingly in the middle of a FaceTime conversation. The industrial-style kitchen hints at the conversion between the kitchen and a laboratory, where molecular gastronomy gains popularity in fine dining business. The studio space shows the artists' white-lacquered figural sculptures in various poses of creative art-making. In the sequence of spaces, the visitors are invited to wander around and discover narrative threads to piece together their own version of the story that each space is relaying. Within the myriad web of details that hint at underlying narratives, Spaces will be a place to get lost in. The Amorepacific Museum of Art hopes that our visitors will discover a unique opportunity to uncover unexpected interpretations of everyday realities. [Exhibition Overview] Title: Spaces Period: September 3, 2024 (TUE) through February 23, 2025 (SUN) Opening hours: 10:00 a.m. to 18:00 p.m. (ticket counter closes at 17:00).

KUALA LUMPUR, MALAYSIA - Media OutReach Newswire - 3 September 2024 - The experts at the global broker Octa examine some crucial aspects of trading and consider the role of trading conditions in the overall success, drawing parallels between trading and brewing coffee. In trading, success often hinges on the tiniest of details. Depending on the trading style, an hour or a minute difference in setting a stop-loss or take-profit order can lead to critical variances in the outcome. Below, the experts at Octa, a globally recognised financial broker with more than 13 years of market experience, draw some parallels between trading and another activity highly dependent on minor differences: the brewing of coffee. Surprisingly enough, there are some essential tricks and ideas traders can pick up from baristas! Small differences play a significant role Regardless of the brewing method, the coffee-to-water ratio, grind size, and brew time are among the first benchmarks baristas determine when tailoring generic recipes to their specific conditions. Depending on these inputs, the resulting cup can either reflect the best qualities of the beans—or hide the positives while emphasising the negatives, negatively affecting both the flavour and aroma and spoiling the taster's experience. In trading, such factors as spread size, commissions, and deposit and withdrawal fees can quickly turn a profitable session into a failure. In sum, these marginal differences can accumulate to equal or even surpass the profits earned as a result of a trading session. Most of the time, success in trading is determined by the minor differences in market prices, so each pip counts. A narrower spread allows traders to enter and exit positions at more favourable prices, maximising potential profits. Even with solid and flexible strategy, styling matches perfectly with temperament, and the sources of information provide quality market insights, one will only achieve consistent profits if chose a broker with favourable trading conditions. For those in doubt, this article will help to avoid the most common mistakes traders make when selecting a broker. One of the most important criteria when choosing a broker is spread size. Broad spreads add up with time, significantly widening profits or reducing gains. To put it in perspective, for one of the most popular major currency pairs, EUR/USD, trading a standard lot with a 3-pip spread at $10 per pip equals $30 in spread cost per standard lot trade. For example, making ten trades daily, the daily spread cost would be no less than $300. Due to global reach and extensive market experience, Octa, a broker with globally recognised licences, offers its clients one of the narrowest spreads on the market, starting from 0.6 pips. Along with the zero commission policy and a transparent withdrawal process, these conditions are worth considering for those who are looking to improve incremental profits. Time is everything When dealing with high-quality coffee, the timing of each step, such as roasting the beans or immersing coffee grounds in water, must be precise to extract the ideal flavour profile. Keeping the grounds in the boiling water for a few seconds too long can result in a bitter or overly strong brew. No matter how good the coffee beans are, the timing can make or break the preparation process. In trading, as in coffee making, timing rules supreme. If entering or exiting a position a few seconds late, one can get a less favourable exchange rate, significantly reducing profitability. Of course, the choice of a trading style can reduce this effect: daily trading is less time-sensitive than scalping, whereas long-term strategies allow for a relatively leisurely schedule. Given that, mastering efficient time management is the key to succeed as even a slight delay can ruin profits. The external factors matter Any seasoned barista knows this: when operating an espresso machine, readjust the settings several times per shift to account for slight ambient temperature and humidity changes is a must. Water characteristics also affect the taste of the cup in a surprisingly significant way, especially when it comes to higher-range beans. The exact same grounds can taste quite differently depending on the water mineralisation. Experienced traders know all but too well: following global economic news, geopolitical events, and key decisions of some governmental agencies and knowing when the seasonal shifts in market activity are due is simply a must. These events often cause rapid and extensive shifts in asset values, and ignoring them would be detrimental to profits over a long time. All traders, no matter the style, must anticipate and react to these fluctuations to capitalise on or mitigate their effects. Using fundamental analysis, traders can readjust their strategies quite efficiently and successfully navigate the markets. With that in mind, it is worth noting that using various leverage options to profit from well-founded predictions and solid analysis can significantly increase your profits, provided you keep the risks in check and use risk management tools. A seasoned trader and a high-class barista have surprisingly a lot in common: they take into account external factors, constantly readjust depending on the specific conditions within a given session, use precise calculations instead of trusting intuition, and keep in mind that even a slight difference can result in significant changes in the outcome.
