Landscape 9210
SHEN Fan
On April 15th, Landscape 9210-SHEN Fan Solo Exhibition will be held in ShanghART
main space. Three new created big installation works follow his unique personal
style, but break out his habitual media. One is installation with oil paintings on
canvas, another two are made from mix media.
The work of Shen Fan seems different from the other things in the normal world. But
their contents are totally similar. From 2003, Shen Fan enters his Landscape Period,
form changes but the spirit remains. It is created to foot on essence, and
expression is open and steady, it conveys the past and the future. It concentrates
different ages and is independent in the same time. It is not a game but the
presentation of thoughts. It is not action but attitude.
Shen Fan was born in 1952 in Jiangyin, Jiangsu province. He graduated from Shanghai
Light Industry Institute, Fine Arts Department in 1986. He participated in the
project Artist in Residence of the Collection Studio in Lincoln, U.K. He currently
resides and works in Shanghai. Selected exhibitions include The End of the Brush and
Ink Era: Chinese Landscape, True Color Museum, Suzhou (2011); Shanghai, Asian Art
Museum, San Francisco, U.S.A.(2010); I have Been Here, Usher gallery; The Collection
of Lincoln, Lincoln, U.K. (2008); 6th Shanghai Biennale - Hyper Design, Shanghai Art
Museum, Shanghai (2006).

The Other Side of Time
WU Yiming
The exhibition The Other Side of Time - WU Yiming Solo Exhibition with ten more Wu
Yiming’s recent works will be showed to public in ShanghART gallery from Apr. 15th
to May. 15th, 2012.
WU Yiming is good at figure paintings, whose work combines traditional culture with
self experience. Via Chinese painting style, he pays more attention to the general
description of images, which is instant and beyond time and space, rather than the
detail information of specific event, background and facial expressions. His work
reveals us an atypical person with both traditional scholars’ wisdom and modem
intellectuals’ feelings.
Wu Yiming was born in Shanghai in 1966. He graduated from East China Normal
University, Fine Arts Department. He resides and works in Shanghai. Recent
exhibitions include The World of Other's: A Contemporary Art Exhibition, Museum of
Contemportary Art, Shanghai(2008); Focus: Wu Yiming's Works On Paper and Sculpture,
ShanghART Gallery (Shanghai, 2006), Time Ex, UMA Gallery (Hong Kong, 2005), China
