EVENT DESCRIPTION
Art of Nature grandly presents The Realm Without Shape– French Art Exhibition at Art of Nature Contemporary Gallery, one of the associated programs of French May Arts Festival, featuring abstract works by French artist Marc Tanguy and French-based Chinese artists Lam Man Kong and Cang Yuan. The exhibition is on view from 20th May to 30th June.
Art is inseparable from the spirituality and idea of the artist. Emancipated from the objective world, the artist creates a language that is the closest to his own soul, pursuing the permanent value of art itself and aesthetics.
The Realm Without Shape symbolizes the imageless realm in artists’ minds yet is projected to the canvas. It is a realm tightly connected to the phenomenal world and humanistic spirit. The three artists thus create a boundless, dynamic yet tranquil visual experience for their audience.
ABOUT THE ARTIST / ORGANISER
Marc Tanguy was a student of Zou Wu-ki. He maintains a high will to represent the harmonic union between the tangible world and the human imagination. Through bright and clear colors, short brushstrokes and random lines, the artist outlines the silhouette of nature and opens up an immersive space that allows the audience to wander between reality and imprint.Lam Man Kong inherits the traditional techniques of classicism and impressionism. He uses the language of oil painting with equal emphasis on light and color to construct the spirit, secrets and poetry of nature. He is like a troubadour who puts keen observation and delicate feeling in his works so that the works evoke people's contemplation of the universe and yearning for light.
The new series of works by Cang Yuan is titled "Conscious", revealing the connection between the human body, spirit, desire, external experience, moral sense, and worldview. He transforms his aesthetic approach from scenic poetry to philosophical and spiritual poetry. Since the change of his creative style in 2021, the artist has further mastered the sense of space, composition and use of color. The works emit a struggle and dramatic atmosphere and a sense of minimalism and purity.
