Trick or Treat? The Spooky Art Collection

Let’s Get Spooky
This Halloween, Weng Contemporary invites you to step into the darker side of art with a collection that’s sure to give you goosebumps. Each piece in this spine-tingling selection was curated to captivate thrill-seekers and art lovers alike with its haunting beauty.
A Family Portrait… with a Twist
In Fear of Babies, Marlene Dumas presents children as distorted, uncanny beings—eerily innocent yet unsettling. This artwork channels a captivating discomfort, delving into the primal fear of the unexpected through haunting portrayals of childhood.
Fear of Babies (1986) by Marlene Dumas
Memento Mori
In Damien Hirst’s world, skulls have a distinct role to play. As in historical Memento Mori and vanitas symbols, Hirst’s skulls obsess over the fragility of life and the certainty of death. These darkly beautiful works confront us with life’s impermanence, reimagined with unsettling elegance.

Faith or Fear?
Andres Serrano confronts viewers with provocative, often controversial imagery that explores violence, faith, and mortality. Works like Ku Klux Klan and Gold Christ provoke deep reflection, questioning the thin boundary between reverence and discomfort, belief and unease.
