Description

Immerse yourself in the fascinating world of the art of Huang Yan – one of the leading artists of the Chinese art scene at the turn of the 20th and 21st centuries. This album documents sixteen years of his pioneering work, in which classical motifs of Chinese art – such as shan shui landscapes – collide with modern forms of expression and conceptual approaches.

Huang Yan uses the human body as a canvas, creating symbolic compositions that address themes of identity, cultural heritage and man’s relationship with nature. The book includes a rich selection of photographs of his most iconic works, as well as critical texts to better understand the meaning and context of his art.

It is not only an aesthetic feast, but also an important document of one of the most original artistic attitudes in contemporary China.
