“Every Artist Should Have A Solo Show”
De Sarthe Beijing

Opening Reception
March 19, 4 – 7 pm
Every Artist Should Have A Solo Show is a solo exhibition by artist Wang Xin. It seems an unusual title an artist can always use a solo show. However it is not surprising that Wang Xin, who claims herself to be a serious art-world player as well as a serious art-world observer would come out with such a title. All of her work in this show can be grouped into her “Rose-Color” series, which are all about the art world and art system. Galleries, artists, art agents, artworks and so on have become her subject in her “Rose-Color” series’ of artworks. This short exhibition introduction you are reading now probably as well. Who do you think it is written by? Curator? Gallery? Or the artist?
