June and July Exhibition Info at Red Gate Gallery

 

“Mask Vs Face”

 

A new group exhibition “Mask Vs Face” curated by Zhang Zhaohui will be held at Red Gate Gallery from June 22 to July 14.

 

A person's face is a living ID card readout of the content of his or her life. The face directly expresses a person's experience, education, depth, and style, as well as psychological and material conditions. We remember or recognise a person primarily because of the impression made on us by his or her individual look.

 

This group show features more than 30 works by Wang Jinsong, Tammy Wong, Li Haibing, Cang Xin, Feng Zhenjie, Chen Ke, Li Wei, Shen Ruijun, Liu Wei, Hong Hao, Sheng Qi, Shu Yong, Shu Jie, Dai Xiuzhen, Jin Feng and Dai Guangyu. This exhibition focuses on the artists own or others' faces and examines the complex relations between masks and faces. These works suggest the artists' individual strategies for active involvement in contemporary social life as well as artistic visual information on urban development and social transformation.
