Red Gate Gallery is pleased to announce an exhibition of Jiang Weitao’s latest abstraction work titled Gap

 

Over the last few years Jiang has perfected his highly glossed oil on canvases which project a very subtle layering of patterns under a varnished surface. There is a warmth and a delicacy to each of his coloured abstractions - the viewer is drawn to the work seeking meaning in the patterns, only to find a certain calmness in the painter’s considered brushwork. Taking his practice further in this exhibition, Jiang crosses over to sheen-less works on paper and shining ceramics which reinforce the character of his palette.
