Seleted Artists
Fang Lijun
Fang Lijun was born in Handan, Hebei Province, China. He graduated from the printmaking department of China Central Academy of Fine Arts in 1989. In the 1980s, Fang Lijun pioneered the cynical realism style, which has been applauded as the most representative and recognizable visual symbols since the “reform and opening up” policy. He has created several huge prints since the late 1990s. With his print-making learning background, he has always expected to make some breakthrough in woodcut print. Huge size but still with fluent knife-wielding techniques is a technical puzzle in Fang Lijun’s woodcut prints, but also his contribution to it. The exhibiting works by Fang Lijun present his humorous and playful style. He has created his unique contemporary woodcut print language with vibrant colour and individualized presentation.
Fang Lijun’s latest solo exhibitions include: “Fang Lijun: Facial Recognition” (Vermilion Art, Sydney, Australia, 2019), “This All Too Human World” (Hanart Gallery, Hong Kong, China, 2017), “Art History of Fang Lijun” (Beijing Minsheng Art Museum, Beijing, China, 2017), etc.
Zhou Chunya
Zhou Chunya was born in 1955 in Chongqing, China. He graduated from the Painting Department of Sichuan Academy of Fine Art in 1982. Then in 1988, he graduated from Experiment Art department of Kassel Academy of Fine Art, Kassel, Germany. Now Zhou Chunya lives and works in Chengdu and Shanghai, China. Zhou Chunya’s painting style, language, ideas and methods have been paying close attention to the present。His exquisite craftsmanship, absorbing the fruits of western contemporary art, is neither conventional nor out of the tradition. His painting is very individualized, while not confined to the local taste. He found his own way of expression, with, both traditional Chinese image and more powerful western oil painting skills.
Zhou Chunya’s latest solo exhibitions include: “Spring ‧ Sprout”(POLY GALLERY II, Hong Kong, China, 2018), “Zhou Chunya: Hong Kong Solo Exhibition”(Amanda Wei Gallery, Hong Kong, China, 2018),“Zhou Chunya New Works 2015” (Macao Museum of Art, Macao, China, 2015), etc.

In 1991, she graduated from the oil painting department, Central Academy of Fine Arts, Beijing, China. She has been teaching at the Tianjin Fine Arts Institute, Tianjin, China since 1991. Cai Jin's art works is in fact the reflection of herself. The artworks of Cai Jin are just like the “water traces on the wall”. She tries to capture the weirdness, and shows no interest in the colorful attractive reality. She devotes herself to the loneliness subject that makes her excited but calls no attention of others.
Cai Jin’s latest solo exhibitions include: Arcadia (Chambers Fine Art, Beijing, China, 2018), A Gathering of Flower Fairies: Cai Jin Solo Exhibition (Triumph Gallery, Beijing, China, 2017), Static and Flowing (Triumph Art Space, Beijing, China, 2015), Cai Jin: Return to the Source (Chambers Fine Art, New York, USA, 2014), Cai Jin: Return to the Source (Chambers Fine Art, Beijing, China, 2013),etc.

Zhang jian
Zhang Jian was born in 1968 in Beijing, China. He graduated from China Central Academy of Fine Art in 1993. Now he lives and works in Beijing. Early in his career Zhang Jian was inspired by the Impressionists particularly Édouard Manet and the Russian Valentin Serov. Zhang Jian became fascinated with representations of sunlight and outdoor themes, striving to demonstrate introspective, calm and peaceful moments in everyday life. In the early 2000s Zhang Jian began to use photography as a starting point for his paintings and employed techniques of ‘flatness’ and blurred figuration in his work - evocative of the work of Gerhard Richter. In recent years, his paintings have become more subjective and free - more expressionistic - creating a confusion of reality, dream and abstraction.
His latest solo exhibitions include: “Tranquility” (PIFO Gallery, Beijing, 2017), “Still Moments” (iPRECIATION, Singapore, 2013), “Zhang Jian: The New Painting” (Galerie Frank Schlag & CIE, Essen, 2011), etc.
