Author: Fanzhi, Zeng
A pioneer of contemporary art in China, Zeng Fanzhi is celebrated globally for his constantly evolving style and subject matter, and the works gathered here herald his latest artistic breakthroughs that contemplate the intersection of Western art and style with traditional Chinese subject matter and philosophy. Gathering 10 works on canvas executed over the past few years – some of which are over 10 feet tall – the book documents Zeng’s latest advances in brushwork and colour.Vivid yellow, cyan blue and vermillion are set as the dominant colours that define each painting, while tonal variations remain nuanced as Zeng’s signature inky black brushstroke creates a vibrant network of patterning. “They are not real landscapes. They are about an experience of 'miao wu' [marvelous revelation],” he has written. “Miao wu constitutes a restless journey of discovery."
ISBN 9783906915807. Hauser & Wirth Publishers. hb. 144 pages. 29.8 x 24.1 cm.
