How does one build a bunker in the sky? Hong Kong based artist Nadim Abbas, in collaboration with Absolut has successfully tackled this question by constructing a unique bar for this year’s Art Basel Hong Kong 2014.
Set in a post-apocalyptic bunker-like environment, Apocalypse Postponed will be Abbas’s literal and conceptual construction of a ‘safe haven’ and will draw inspiration from a range of sources, from cult science fiction films including A Clockwork Orange, Dune and Alien, to 20th century defensive plans and fortifications such as the Swiss National Redoubt and Atlantic Wall.
