Art Besiege - A Group Exhibition of Art by Beijing Based Artists

February 19 - March 13 ‘08

Sunjin Galleriesis is pleased to announce a group exhibition of Beijing based artists.

China is still dizzying with contemporary art. The emergence of talented painters there holds no bounds. ‘Art Besiege’ is a myriad of artworks presented by the generation of artists who grew up during the Cultural Revolution and were students during the 1989 democracy protests are still in the midst of fashioning a legacy that has left art collectors and museums in breathless states of desire.

Ren Hui’s creation of black and white woodcut works, his chiseling myriads of fine white dots to construct images of himself and his friends, leaving people a visual effect not only imposing but majestic in a variety of ways.

Ren Jian Hui’s new series of monochromatic green portraits are a visual feast. Adopting the very popular Chinese splash ink technique invented by the famous Zhang Da Chien Chinese painter, Ren does it by processing the oil paints to be so thin and applying the ink-splattering’ technique on the canvas resulting semi realism and abstraction, background and foreground, contemporary and classical, and Western and Chinese art.

Since the terracotta warriors were discovered in 1974 by farmers digging for a well in Xian, this life sized and lifelike army has become an icon of China's past, instantly recognizable all over the world. The terracotta warriors were the 8,000 strong underground army buried in Emperor Qin Shi Huang Ti's tomb (221 - 207 BC), to protect him in his afterlife.

Li Feng Hua's sculptures are a wry, witty look at his country's history and future post-Cultural Revolution direction. Two thousand years separate China's first emperor and Mao. But Li's modern ceramic warriors can be seen as an artistic statement of the morally complicated legacy of these two leaders - both great revolutionary leaders and yet, both great criminals, who have left a lasting legacy on China.

Jin Yu’s Touch Point series are a reflection of the women in Modern China. Yu kept to the mainstream of figurative art but the rendering of figures pressed against a glass and simplified colours of red and white leaves the viewer with a vivid imagination.

I Wayan Bendi – b. 1950 (Indonesia)

I Wayan Bendi is a living legend, the leading practitioner of the Batuan style of painting which developed in Bali in the 1920’s-1930’s.

He was born in 1950, in Batuan, a village near Ubud. He still remains rooted to his birthplace, where he has his studio and art gallery.

The Batuan style of painting is very intricate and detailed, crammed with many “stories”. Paintings in this style are tightly crowded with teeming crowds and scenes that depict all the traditional aspects of Bali life, like rice harvests, temple rituals, dancing girls and fantastical theater masks.

A Batuan picture usually has a sober monochrome color palette, because of the initial application of black and grey paint on the canvas surface as base. But Bendi is also an artist with a mischievous streak. For a Batuan artist, he is considered very colorful with his ‘soberly bold’ colors like brick red and light olive. Then there’s his ‘thing’ about helicopters. Bendi usually has one somewhere in his crowded agrarian scenes, and part of the fun is to hunt for it. Another favorite, the t-shirt clad, inquisitive tourist with his intrusive, long nosed camera lens, snapping away amid the water buffaloes and rickety taxis. It’s a Bendi trademark that speaks volumes about his concern for Bali’s relationship with the almighty tourist dollar.

In recent years, Bendi has expanded his focus to capture traumatic events that has impacted Indonesia, from the Bali bombing to the tsunami. Always, Bendi’s witty, observant paintings are like a macrocosm of modern Bali life.

The artist has exhibited in Japan, Netherlands, Belgium and New York.
