［Press Release］
The joint solo exhibition “My Mum/My Father” features the new works of two Mainland Chinese photography artists: My Mum by Ren Hang (b. 1987), a rising star on contemporary Chinese art scene who encapsulates the country’s subculture in his provocative personal photography; and Father by Li Lang (b. 1969), one of China’s most important artists of documentary photography in recent years. In a contrasting showcase of Ren’s colourful and conceptually playful portraits of his mother, and Li’s emotive documentations of the life of his late father on which he hand-wrote 30,219 dates of the days his father lived, this exhibition reflects some of the intriguing and experimental facets of the two photographic forms.
Please note that the gallery will be closed from 25 Dec 2014 to 5 Jan 2015 for the holidays, and will reopen on 6 Jan 2015, Tuesday.
We wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
