We are Polit-Sheer-Form
Polit-Sheer-Form Office
Duration: May 20th, 2011 – July 3rd, 2011 (11 am – 9 pm, Mon-Sun)
Location: Shanghai Gallery of Art @ Three on the Bund (3rd Floor, 3 Zhongshan Dong Yi Road Shanghai)
Polit-Sheer-Form Office (PSFO) is an art collective founded by artists Hong Hao, Xiao Yu, Song Dong, Liu Jianhua, and curator/critic Leng Lin in 2005. This occasion marks the anniversary of the group’s five year exhibition career by presenting a retrospective of their multi-disciplinary projects and well as exciting new works. PSFO concerns themselves with the idea of ‘we’ in a ‘me’ world. For a society that has moved far away from collective ideals, PSFO presents a new Socialist order fit for 21st Century mankind. Together the group thinks, talks, travels and has fun in an attempt to transform political, cultural, economic and everyday life into pure forms with their boundary-blurring practice.
SGA Project Space: Central Park
Artist: Zhao Xuebing
Duration: May 20th, 2011 – July 3rd, 2011 (11 am – 9 pm, Mon-Sun)
Location: Shanghai Gallery of Art @ Three on the Bund, Project Space (3rd Floor, 3 Zhongshan Dong Yi Road Shanghai)
Shanghai Gallery of Art’s Project Space is also proud to present Central Park, a solo painting exhibition by Zhao Xuebing. Before arriving in Shanghai in early 2010 Zhao has spent the last 7 years living and working in Paris and New York City. The Central Park paintings are based on images and recollections of NYC’s Central Park’s back wood areas. These haunting, painstakingly painted landscapes emit a sense of deep wilderness amidst autumn decay or just after a storm. In subdued tones and washed out surfaces Zhao’s original painting style plays with light as an aperture on the camera would, reminding us that like photography the landscape is inextricably entwined with memory. In another series Zhao shows his dexterity with an altogether different but complimentary painting style. The Grass series depicts imaginary reed-like vegetation with red and black graphic lines. These artificial reeds appear as an intricate web of corrosive constellations and speak to man’s growing manipulation and alienation from nature.
