{"product_id":"65376-liu-wei","title":"Liu Wei","description":"Liu Wei’s work shows a wide range of influences – from Chinese calligraphy to Expressionism – and addresses universal themes. Wei’s painting demonstrates technical quality and a fine sense of color and composition, as seen, for example, in his lush landscapes, where flora and fauna often leave the boundaries of the canvas and extend onto rococo-style frames. This first major monograph traces his development from early paintings that reflect disillusionment with political and artistic utopias through the lens of skepticism and satire, to lush landscapes, striking portraits, and more recent philosophical and contemplative calligraphic works on paper. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eLIU WEI (*1965, Beijing) studied printmaking at the Central Academy of Fine Arts in Beijing, where he lives today. He first became known for his contribution to the Chinese “Cynical Realism” movement. Exhibitions include the Singapore Art Museum, San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, and the Venice Biennale.","brand":"Hatje Cantz Verlag","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49755248787720,"sku":"9783775755375","price":48.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0582\/8948\/8049\/files\/odoo_9783775755375.jpg?v=1744111202","url":"https:\/\/hatjecantz.de\/en\/products\/65376-liu-wei","provider":"Hatje Cantz Verlag","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
