艺术家简历 ARTIST BIOGRAPHIES

Fine Arts and Crafts (1979), where he studied under Wu Guan-zhong, one of the forerunners of
modern Chinese painting. Wang later co-founded the Contemporaries with his classmates, an
avant-garde art group active in the late 1970s and early 1980s. Wang visited Shaoxing, Zhejiang
in 1985, where he was profoundly moved by the water towns and their cultural heritage and
idyllic atmosphere, especially the structure of ancient architecture and the texture of antique
furniture. This gave birth to his creative shift towards the minimal palette of black and white,
as well as an abstract expression of three-dimensionality. This shift marks a milestone in his
artistic practice, where he began shaping a different visual language that would redefine his
work in the years to come. Notable exhibitions include: Vertical, Horizontal, Tsinghua University
