王俊 Wang Jun China, b. 1974

Wang Jun, born in 1974 in Chongqing, has graduated from the Department of printmaking of Sichuan Fine Art Institute with a bachelor degree (1999) and a master degree (2005).  He currently lives and works in Chongqing, Guiyang. Wang Jun has been in artistic residence at Centre for Chinese Contemporary Art in Manchester, United Kingdom (2010) and in Dusseldorf city of Germany. His creation includes paintings and installations. As a typical skeptic, his creation is not simple linear development. He changes constantly artistic creation medium in order to break something solidifying and establish his own logic. He hopes that his creation lines can emerge independently, or have collision and interaction between them. Wang Jun has always regarded "painting" as a vocabulary, making his creation unfolded in a way of continuous self-doubt and initiative to create deliberate and out of control. His recent works related to "landscape" --  the“sketching”and the production of its images. He rejects to translate the image directly and simply. Instead, he tries to get closer to a perceptual reality through constant denial, coverage, and reconstruction to fight against inertial experience, making the "method" he practiced become "content".
