Art Beatus Gallery Shows Wang Nengtao

Wednesday, 11 July 2007 00:26

Hong Kong - With his colourful limited edition prints, Wang Nengtao hopes to incarcerate the remaining positive attitudes still held by people in China today. Some of the attitudes that he wishes to maintain are fast vanishing and some have already been sarcastically twisted and remarked. On exhibition 3 August through 24 August, 2007.

Wang is fighting an uphill battle to uplift these ideal attitudes. In “No Big Deal” exhibition, Wang will show his works in print done over the past three years. He adorned them with slogans such as “Have High Ideals Since Young”, “Look Forward”, “Things Will Turn Better”, “Definitely We Will Over-take the U.S.”, ”Absolutely, Resolutely” and, of course, ”No Big Deal”.

The prints selected for this exhibition will be his smaller works, as the large ones are big enough to cover walls. The works remind viewers of the propaganda posters in China during the sixties and seventies of the last century but the colours and presentation are definitely contemporary.

Wang was born in Harbin, Heilongjiang, China in 1962 and graduated from the Art Department of the Central Ethnic Academy in 1988. He became a full time artist since 1989.

Art Beatus Gallery is located at 35-39 Graham Street, ground floor, Central. For further information about this exhibition contact us at : This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.
