  • In Between Color and Mood

    Apr 14 - May 27, 2012

    Looking back at the art scene in China, Wang Yigang stands out as one of the most representative artists who use abstract forms and artistic language for their creative style. Wang began his creative career of three decades with Western Cubism. After experimenting with the juxtaposition of figurative and pop art images, he slowly turned his focus to abstract expressions for the creation of dialogues in traditional Chinese landscapes. During each stage in his career, Wang continued to seek breakthroughs, while challenging himself to express diversity and innovation within his paintings.

    Nov 19, 2011 - Jan 15, 2012

    Each area or urban setting contains its own life, lineage, and memories that are inherently complex, overlapping, fragmented, chaotic, and even contradictory. This is because such memories originate from the desires, actions, pursuits, and creations of many individuals. When an area or city is uniformly reorganized through urban planning, then their memories are erased and all creativity is destroyed. What remains in culture is a barren desert. Therefore, this exhibition is not so much an attempt to exhibit realistic images of a “barren” but to enact a “pruning” of realistic representations. Perhaps, the featured artworks present a kind of “reality” found in Northeast contemporary art, or just one aspect of “reality”.
