XIANG, QIN HUA


(Chongqing 1976)
Kiss.
Oil on canvas. 2006. Signed.
180 x 130 cm.
Weird atmosphere, fancy fictitious plot, and dull and stubborn faces, they
are the first impression when we see the works of Xiang Qinghua. It seems
we are personally on the genial and familiar scene, we return to our childhood, an age that is impossible to recur. Actually this age never exists in our
life, and it is an age only exists in our dreams. There is no trace which everything passes that we can discover expressed by words and should be
remembered to the end of ones life, and we can feel the excitement of
expectation before the happening of stories in Xiangs paintings.

YIN, ZHAO YANG


(Henan 1970)
Myth.
Oil on canvas. 2005. Signed.
150 x 120 cm.
Literature:
Today Art Gallery, ``Myth Yin Zhaoyang, Sichuan Art Publishing House.,2006,P 74-75.
Yin Zhaoyangs painting starts the creation with a sentimental
topic reflecting the romantic sorrow of youthhood of the people
born in 1970s, and starts the real description of self-image and
emotional characteristics of that generation. Yin Zhaoyang is a
representative of the School of Painting of Youth Cruelty, and
his creation has a high place in the realistic paintings in the end

of 1990s in China.
In his paintings, Yin Zhaoyang raises the expression of youth
to the very high level of the introspection of human nature, and
sensibly generalizes the circumstances of the youth during that
age. Through a dramatic vision and narrative tension, the circumstances manifest the dilemma of human nature and selfcontradiction of these people born in 1970s in the era of postideology.
As to the subjectivity of the picture, Yin Zhaoyang strips the
objective colors from the images in his paintings, hence, there
is a direct penetrative force between the sense of circumstances
and the sense of reality. And as to the method of expression,
Yin Zhaoyang adopts realism which hides his techniques of
painting, and he focuses on portray of the full psychological
scene of the picture which shows his great talent of expression by painting. In 1990s, the School of Painting of Youth
Cruelty with Yin Zhaoyang as a representative again endowed painting experimentative feature and depth of thinking on
the level of its narrative feature, conception of image and aesthetical interest, and the style of the School became a significant tendency of avant-garde painting in1990s.

JI, DA CHUN
Through subversive wit, Ji Dachun addresses the complex relations between Eastern and Western. Usually working in graphite
and acrylic on canvas, he infuses his paintings with grotesque
humor and accident. His subject matter is the happenstance of
everyday life reimagined in absurd collisions of form and context, as in the Lenin in Red Oktober. Other works, such as Kunfu
Li, are more playfully transformative, combining human imagination with figures in famous literature. The subdued, self-consuming preciousness of his works expresses Ji s irreverent, individualistik aesthetic unique amongst current Chinese art.

``While a person is painting, he is lonely. When you are in the


same mood for many years, you will find that the effort you
have made, no matter how great it is, is worthwhile even without any payment. You will not care if your painting is oriental
or western, classical or modern, because, in fact, there is no
much difference, and painting is just the empty valley in your
soul.

CONTEMPORARY CHINESE ART

One of the essential characteristics of Mas pictures is the figurative alienation, the way out of a rigorous and intimate search.
Neither Munch with his Cry nor any contemporary artist was
that far in transcription of an existential symbolism. In fact, Ma
Liuming exceeds it because he abstracts the context to open the
way of the universal and the elevation to us.
But maybe it is necessary to explain what the phenomenon
makes operate. He plays on the two opposite poles, the more
and the less, what is translated with the first paintings to an
inverse language, cut in its middle, that confirms the assumption that truth is not in the truncated image which send the
hostile world to us, but in inner, recovered harmony.
For seconds, there does not exist more than one figurative elliptic and asexual formulation, concentrated on itself in a vertical,
oblong, and extended essential.
The distinctive signs and codes of an identity are mixed, hidden,
melted in a line of anamorphic force which creates a resonance
with its periods of transformation to its female double.
Ma Liuming, known for his mutations to his female alter ego
Fen-Ma Liuming and his performances, revitalizes the painting
with this coiled entity to the eternal living.
His new paintings with intense and deformed depictions build a
subtle coherence with his former performances. They communicate an echo way beyond the sedimentary trace let on the
ground. It is this vision of profoundness which touches us.
How does Ma Liuming manage it to surprise us?
He prioritizes black to accent the resistance of the light and the
improbable centrality of the living. In its elements, the amorphous in gestation comprehends the beginning and the end.
Thus, the very present black would be the antithesis of life, the
nonentity. But it is the space time too, the infinite.
This plastic metaphor is an opening which refers us to the
immemorial beginning of life, which reminds us that the energy
and the matter are an inseparable couple of a whole constituting us. The content envisions, if one prolongs the analogy,
black holes, the non-being, and the creations mystery.
Its symbolism gets its origin from the Chinese metaphysics,
avoiding each folkloristic dramatizing or the platitude of the
common sense.
Everything is expressed, required in this fluent narration.
Emptied of any redundancy or of what is not essential for the
works mental territory, his paintings pay the exiguous and the
full, in a meta memory which is disalienated of any aesthetical
dictation.
The encoded transmission is concentrated on a vertical painting
line which, in its sensory profoundness, amplifies the sounds,
signs, palette, and other energies founding its reality.
What imposes itself upon the observers eyes, is that Ma Liuming has just Signed. a genre with his paintings, a put into abyss
of the figure, a testimony of flesh, that redefines the order of the
deified discourse on humanity.
Through that, the artist applies the proof that the painting is
not dead, but that it is an energy which has the power to renew
its semantic and to oblige us to see and to interpret the visible
and the invisible, the material and the immaterial.
With this new biomorphic formulation, Ma Liuming modifies
the figurative process and creates an iconography of the image,
called to become reference, archetype.

Ma Liumings art and his attempt at using Planism in painting


As one of the earliest contemporary Chinese performance
artists, Ma Liuming used to express
his feelings and ideas through his
own performance before. In 1988,
Ma Liuming cooperated with Wei
Guangqing and they gave a performance named Plan of Suicide
in Wuhan. In the performance, he
tightly bound himself with a long piece of cloth and the performance hazily revealed individuals frustration and desperation
to the political bondage during that era. In 1993, Ma Liuming
was one of the early members of the East Village Artistic Area,
and from then he entered his active stage of creation. He changed his active performance art with the feature of objective
narration and active expression in his early period to the abstract performance art with the feature of virtual objection.
FenMa Liuming becomes a dissimilated and virtual artwork,
which is a perfect interpretation of contemporary Chinese art of
body language, including the performance The Lunch of
FenMa Liuming and FenMa Liuming in Geneva.
While Ma Liuming was engaged in performance art, he also
concentrated constantly on his painting. The works in his early
and middle stage are the continuity of the narration through
his performance art, such as a man with a head of a woman
and a baby with a face of FenMa Liuming. FenMa Liuming does no more exit only in performance art, and it has
become the synonym of Ma Liumings abstract language, a
language of a virtual and dissimilated beauty, and a review of
the reality in the world.
In recent years, some development happens in Ma Liumings
art . Since the birth of my kid, I had a renewed identification
of painting, Ma Liuming says, When the kid opens his eyes
and observe the world for the first time, in my opinion, the
impression he gets is obacure, and his vision should be approximately a line. His statement brings us back to the theory
about how to recognize the formation of objects in the space
with the most basic and primitive vision. At the beginning of
20th century, Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque established
Cubism which identifies the new relationship between the formation and space - using a flat image to present all the planes of that object we can see in real space. Though it is only
abstractly geometric, it primitively paints the real formation of
the object. It is different from the point of view by which we
recognize an object through the three-dimensional vision,
nevertheless, it interprets an object through the two-dimensional vision . About Ma Liumings painting that the image is
almost a line is totally not the simple distortion of objects like
that in a distorting mirror. If we observe the image from the
upper or lower side angles, we will be surprised that the real
formation of the object recurs on the painting. It is almost to
interprets an object in the most basic and primitive one-dimensional space, a line. Refer to the Cubism, we may likely call
this creative painting technique, which is formed on the base of
Cubism, Planism`. This creative means of expression may
become a new subject of the contemporary art.

Gong Jian likes to make his own response to problems of


modern society by such a direct, playful and humorous way. In
1930s, Feng Zikai, a very famous Chinese painter, drawed
many caricatures to deprecate the reality of that time. Gong
uses his own language to refer to the problems and reality of
modern society skillfully. In his painting, there is no clear division between the social criticism and personal entertainment,
but it also reflects a state of young artists thoughts.

reconstruction and rebirth..
``My work is like archery. First I have a target. Once I recognize
a target, my work becomes specific. Taking the printed material

I have collected, first I tear the paper, then I burn the edges and
sort the fragments into categories. It is like gathering arguments
for a thesis. I do not care about drawing in my canvases. My
works directly reach the ultimate aim of vision, that is, the meaning of signs. The fire allowed me to discover a direct language
to express myself. Through continuous exploration, I know how
to hit the target.

Since 1989, the creation of Xia Xiaowan entered a new artistic
period, and the style of his works was realistic Romanism and
Symbolism. In fact, we are familiar with the images in his paintings; however, as the painters potential memory of Classicism
enhances the volume of images and special impression of paintings, these paintings place us in the mysterious dramatic
atmosphere. If only we know the essence of eternity of Classicism, we will easily understand why the artist establishes a
contact between the life and Classicism, or why he has a kind
of consciousness of return in his style.

Literature: ``ESSENCE OF VIOLENCE, Hebei Education Publishing House.
Born in 1963 in Hebei province, graduated from the Hebei Technical Institute. He worked for time as
a policeman in a constabulary before setting himself up as a professional painter. His works always
painted with a ruddy palette, using predominately reds and oranges, are made up of sketched figures that occasionally include portraits of Mao. His canvases are always extremely violent, the figures
often appearing in the act of devouring one another. It is not clear if the period that is being
addressed in these social sketches is that of the past , the hard years of communism and the Cultural Revolution, or in fact the present period, competition. His work, though employing a very Chinese
style, with much blurring and splashes of color, remains of the first contemporary Chinese artists
who through universal themes, deals with the issue of sexuality as it relates to violence.

The nostalgia of the passed years and the hometown is also a


rebellion to the decline of the spiritual life in the modern world.
In Bai Guanghuas mind, traditional gardens in Suzhou are
dreamlike and melancholy. Those faintly perceivable impressions which may arouse his memory of the childhood and the
former resplendence are more like a nightmare, though apparently his photographs seem so peaceful and exquisite.
