Realised with the collaboration of UCCA and Urs-Meile Gallery, this exhibition will be dedicated to the chinese artist Wang Xingwei.

Born in 1969 in Shenyang, China, Wang Xingwei is one of the representatives of Chinese painting after the mid 1990s. His realistic pictorial language adds a new dimension to his paintings after 1994 both in connotation and denotation. The year of 2008 marked the transition in his art, from intervention in the system of signification by means of examination and integration of the pictorial languages as media, to more emphasis on the inherent structure of the pictorial languages and their form, thus highlighting the homogeneity between fundamental factors in a visual reproduction, like form, space, mass, properties, rhythm, order, class, etc., and the psychological structure, unconsciousness and instinct on the part of the painter and the viewers.

As a reliable record of the artist’s original idea, as well as a vital stage in the fulfillment of an artwork, a sketch often embodies the keenest and most accurate sense of art, and is sometimes even more vigorous than the final art work, therefore regarded as the formal vehicle of artistic inspirations for an open and liberal artist. More than one hundred in total sketches presented at this exhibition, make up a selection from a large number of sketches that Wang Xingwei has accumulated over the past 20 years. This exhibition, jointly organized by Galerie Urs Meile, Beijing-‐Lucerne and 01100001 Gallery, opening simultaneously with “Wang Xingwei”, a large-scale retrospective exhibition at Ullens Center for Contemporary Art (UCCA) in Beijing, will surely offer a unique opportunity to gain a clear and profound understanding as well as genuine admiration of Wang Xingwei’s art works.

MOVEMENT FIELD
XU ZHEN produced by MadeIn Company
LONG MARCH SPACE
27 April – 23 June, 2013

Each of us has a certain desire of accomplishing a movement – Xu Zhen

Provocation has always been a main aspect in Xu Zhen’s creation, touching upon taboos, definitions and rules. His early work8848-1.86, fully reflects doubts about power and truth - this installation is a ‘troublemaker’, ironizing humankind’s illusory and blind pursuit for a certain ‘apogee’- it encompasses the current chaotic situation in politics, economy, culture and history generated by ambitions of hegemony, selfish desires. With provocation as a stimulus, Xu Zhen builds a systematized ‘destruction/reconstruction’ cycle. This logic reached its climax when in 2009he announced that ‘Xu Zhen’ was over, and began ‘MadeIn Company’. Under his direction, MadeIn creative team acted in a more radical way, at the edge of art creation, power and business. Operating under a public ‘undercover’ identity, ‘MadeIn’undertook all kind of experiences within this mechanism.

As Xu Zhen elaborated this art system, ‘Movement’ became a new keyword, it pointed out and aroused a reflection on the complexity of human collective consciousness and attitude. The series Movementism,created in 2012, was conceived by Xu Zhen as he subtly caught the fact that “people all have a certain desire of accomplishing a movement”.The newly created Movement Fieldthat will be presented this time, is an utopian space composed of multiplereal movement-relateditineraries. This Movement Field is a memorial, which questionspast and future commemorations; it constitutes a place for infinite spiritual quests. Thus, works from the series True Image exhibited within this Movement Fieldrepresents a form of media creation based on media diffusion. Among them, pictorial installations inspired by ‘faith’ and ‘symbols’, such as a lotus composed of gas stoves and huge rainbows Buddha,embodyXu Zhen’s comprehensionof faith and self-belief. ‘Ginseng’ images collected from the internet, probe Eastern and Western different cultural backgrounds and knowledge about a similar material, this work alludes to a certain upright tolerance within disorder and confusion.

These works by XuZhen, will all be displayed in MadeIn Company Spring 2013 New Works Exhibition organized by Long March Space. Visitors will have the opportunity to experience Xu Zhen’s Movementism. Xu Zhen considers that Human actions (and thoughts) that are stimulated by goalsconstitutea movement, heraises requestsonitsscale, adheres to this attitude, and determines a particular way of understanding. Through his signature provocation and doubt,  Xu Zhen audaciously reveals his attitude towards the world. 
Produced by MadeIn Company

About ‘Xu Zhen’
MadeIn Company Spring 2013 New Works Exhibition will be held at Long March Space. On this occasion, MadeIn Company is proud to announce the launch of the brand ‘Xu Zhen’. Simultaneously,MadeIn will become a company that represents and creates art brands. In 2009, as MadeIn Company was established, Xu Zhen declared he won’t use his individual identity anymore. This return isn’t an individual artist’s comeback, but the creation of a new brand. MadeIn Company will dedicate its work in terms of art creation, production, promotion, and collectionto the brand ‘Xu Zhen’. Hence, Xu Zhen is experiencing a third identity phase: from an individual entity to MadeIn Company’s entrepreneur, to a brand introduced by MadeIn Company. The emergence of ‘Xu Zhen’ brand is a breakthrough in the openness and possibilities in contemporary art; ‘Xu Zhen’ brand development will become a new model in contemporary art.

Since 2002, Long March Space has collaborated with artist Xu Zhen, and since 2009, MadeIn Company. Long March Space is proud to continue the journey and represent the “Xu Zhen” brand.

Long March Space works with leading artists to produce exhibitions and projects that breakthrough conventional understanding of art and culture, the individual and society. The gallery acts as both an alternative and complement to the mainstream social and economic conditions and the art market in China.

Aniwar, Huang Yuxing, Huang Zhiyang, Liang Wei, Nashunbatu, Sheng Tianho Why Paint?
Apr 13 - Jun 29, 2013
show nearby

Painting, still the world’s most popular art form, by virtue of its nature，tradition and historical background, inevitably poses a litany of
rhetorical questions:
In the age of new technology, will painting survive?
Is painting practice relevant to anyone beyond the person immersed in the act of painting?
Have the communicative aspects of paint already been fully realized?
What more can painting hope to achieve? Is there anything new we can possibly hope to convey with a painting?
When we talk about painting, we inevitably turn to the dialectic between concept and technique, between attitude and aesthetic,
that results in the act of turning an idea into art. Painting conjures images of the will to express oneself three dimensionally, to pose
questions visually; and, to engage our thoughts on metaphysical questions and the mystery of reality.
In the words of David Sylvester, an optimist when it came to the future of painting:
“The paint appears to act like a miraculous teeming substance that actually generates life under our eyes. It is as if matter and energy
were being continually churned out, were forever being renewed by the paint”.
The artists in this exhibition are primarily engaged in the act of painting, they share the common trait of being “wedded” to painting.
For those less optimistic on painting’s continued evolution, the spectre of Sisyphus may loom over these artists’ peculiar drive to paint.
The works on display have no common style: They present a wide spectrum of brush strokes, paint materials and color palettes,
imbued with diverse meaning, gesture and self-conscious acts. The aim is to offer the audience fertile ground to linger, to look, and
to ponder, for oneself, the “Why?” of painting.
