23 March 2023 - 29 April 2023

Free

EVENT DESCRIPTION

One of the most representative artists in the field of non-figurative art in China – Jin Rilong’s solo exhibition will be opened at Wei Gallery on the 23rd March, 2023 at the same time as Art Basel 2023 in Hong Kong.

Following the first Jin’s solo exhibition “Image Reconstruction” in 2019, Wei Gallery will reveal Jin Rilong’s latest artworks from 2019 to 2022 during Art Basel 2023. This exhibition “Eternity” implies the poetic imagery of the eternal immutability, as we rationally admire the artist’s sensual world that he has always been exploring, and presents his artistic journey and self-transformation of the past four years.

Artist Jin Rilong’s new book “25 Years of Non-figurative Art” will also be published during the exhibition. Apart from the publication, Wei Gallery is delighted to invite the artist to the gallery for holding the art talks.

Jin Rilong’s unique art style was inspired by his rich life experience and interdisciplinary practical experience. His early learning experience of oil painting at the Central Academy of Arts has laid a solid foundation for his realistic painting. Later, he went to South Korea to study video installation and abstract art. His works focus more on the artistic conception and the vision of light through.

Jin Rilong’s painting is not about the physical light reflected by the concrete objects, but the metaphorical light in his mind. His unremitting exploration of self and art has extended the vitality of his art creation and innovations. At the same time, his unique cultural background and learning experience granted him an extraordinary energy and visual impact distinct from the western artists.
