Xue Song fashion series works solo exhibion
'Ver-de-ga' is thoroughly Shanghai local dialect and means
'irrelevance'. However, Xue Song is interpreting
'Ver-de-ga' in his own unique way.
For example, Xue Song's 'Go into Business' is a work around
Jin Xunhua, a famous hero in 1960s. The figure is build up as a collage
of newspaper and bookpage fragments showing images of the enthusiastic
young people working in the countryside in that time. The background is
covered with reproductions of money from different ages.
"Xue Song posses the fundamental cultural characteristics of his
generation, a measured humour, constructiveness and a profound
historical memory, a rationalization in the appraisal of historical
politics, and of introspection".
What a kind of visual effects wills the current exhibition of Xue
Song's works create for us? Let's wait and see.
Xue Song was born 1965 in Anhui, graduated from the Shanghai Theater
Academy in 1988. Xue Song held numourous solo and group exhibition in
Shanghai, Germany, Hong Kong and the US. He lives and works in
Shanghai.
