Group Show: Sync in Progress...
Tang Contemporary Art is honored to represent "Sync in progress鈥�" on Nov. 19th at Beijing 1st gallery space. Curated by Michela Sena, this group show includes works by Geoffrey Bouillot, Jon Burgerman, Mona Brosch谩r, Nina Bachmann, HIMBAD, Helena Margr茅t J贸nsd贸ttir, Nirit Takele, Tang Shuo and Albert Willem.
Painting, in particular figurative one, not only survives but develops in ever more current forms; that is what we intend to convey with this exhibition.
The resilience of painting represents, not simply, that vital, uncontainable urge to continue along the chosen road, despite everything; it entails the ability to decipher 鈥渢he contemporary鈥� and translate it into meaningful and visionary codes.
It was only afterwards, when the "dry" conceptual art of the 90鈥� and, more recently, digital media, pulled the curtain down and told the world that painting was over, that "new figurative" has became the best artistic language to understand how contemporary culture has transformed over the last few decades.
In fact, the power of painting depends on neither the artist鈥檚 skill nor the viewer鈥檚 experience, rather it is the real answer to the new aesthetic codes of contemporary life, ciphers that develop independently.
