Gonkar Gyatso, a Tibetan working and living in London, is an artist to watch. His artwork is in display here in Venice for the 53rd Biennale, which runs until November 22, 2009.

Using ink, pencil, stickers, and treated paper, Gonkar Gyatso’s work represents traditional visual motifs—such as the iconographic structure of thangka painting—in an apparently lighthearted vein using modern icons we are familiar with.
