Written and edited by Althea Chia, Bliss Express: illustrating happiness presents twenty-one artists takes on the enigmatic and ethereal nature of happiness. Featured artists include such notables as David Choe, Seonna Hong and Yumiko Kayukawa. Bliss Express offers two introductory essasys one by Mark Kingwell, author, Professor of Philosophy at the University of Toronto, and astute observer of cultural practice and the other by Eric Nakamura (founder) and Martin Wong (co-editor) of Giant Robot. Kingwell's examination of happiness focuses a laser beam on society's insatiable and perhaps futile quest to manufacture and sell happiness to the masses. Eric Nakamura and Martin Wong make the point that happiness for artists starts with the freedom to express themselves without worry of pleasing an editor, sponsoring patron or other commercial interest. As they label it, indie art, is about blurring the lines between high culture and pop culture -- a much more welcoming, inclusive and deeply personal approach to art than perhaps what has preceded it.
