“This is Still Landscape Painting” press release
This is Still Landscape Painting
Ink Studio, Beijing
18.05.2014 — 31.08.2014
This Is Still Landscape Painting features new works by artist Yang Jiechang (b. 1956 in Foshan, Guangdong province, China). With this exhibition, Yang presents his audience with a range of paintings that are both disturbing and beautiful. Power, violence and terror are central concerns in Yang’s art and yet so are transcendence of form, sublimation of self and universal love. When Yang deploys seductively masterful technique in service of psychologically disturbing or even horrifying imagery, our experience approaches the sublime — a realization of the inhuman that is both monstrous and transcendent.
