Into the Immensity of the Cosmos: Wang Shaoqiang Solo Exhibition

Based on his love and confidence in the traditional Chinese culture, Wang Shaoqiang cultivated a unique insight, which helped him move against all the obstacles, hence observing what is good and what is not. With a cultural stance of connecting ancient and modern art between China and the West, the present and the past, drawing inspiration from the spirit of modern Western science, Wang Shaoqiang has conducted a systematic study and reflection on Chinese ink art, especially the literati painting tradition after the Song Dynasty. He has also studied and reflected on the relationship between ink art and geography, geology, anthropology, archaeology and other disciplines. A creative and imaginative reconstruction of tradition has been carried out from the perspectives of contemporary art, including media, physics, and production, which helped him develop a unique set of visual language logic and artistic viewing methods.
