Yang Liming’s paintings are abstract, in the same time having a stable, firming ground structure. Nevertheless, by closer perception there are many different aspects, parts that show reflection, sigh and some light moments of joy. Here is maybe the point to connect with Franz Schubert’s music with its delicate points like open wounds, melancholic meditations of questions without answers given. Yang Liming’s paintings take the viewers into their deep universe, in case the viewer permits to be carried away.  Just as well as in Schubert’s music are questions rising, involving the observer into their matter.  What is melancholia in Schubert’s music stays as a mystery in Yang Liming’s paintings.
