Opening : 16:00 – 19:00, September 28th

Graduated from Oil Painting Dep. Of CAFA, Yan Bing had obsoleted media of oil painting at an early stage of his career. Then he devoted himself to a different kind of work, composed with materials like soil, fur, silk and linen. In the autumn of 2013, he renews the theme “My Labor” in this new solo exhibition, two years after the previous one. The theme, as well as the titles of all his works, do not presuppose any presumptions. Through years of precipitation, Yan Bing is once again capturing a new calling of life force in painting. On September 28th, 201, Gallery Yang would like to present an opportunity in an original way, for the audience as intervening subjects, of entering Yan Bing’s works which spring from instinct, and invite experience of meditation. Yan Bing said. “I think, the reason why I repeatedly come back to depict these schemes and traces, is the fact that these schemes are undecryptable, and these trace are discernible evidences of my having lived. It likes depicting all my experience of life, with a blind joyousness.”
