Ma Wei-Hong
Chinese Contemporary Art by Ma Wei-Hong - The Good Times Are Fleeting

2017

About the Item

Acrylic on fabric Ma Wei-Hong is a Chinese artist born in 1977 who lives & works in Songzhuang, Beijing, China. She is graduated from Shanxi Yuncheng College of Art. Ma pursued advanced studies in the Mural Painting Department of the Central Academy of Fine Arts in Beijing (CAFA). She belongs to Chinese Neo-Expressionnism movement. The style and appearance of Ma's current works reveals that her intention is to uphold the purity of motivation by abolishing theme. From paintings of Ma Wei-Hong, we can see the predicament of our era. By employing the narrative form like a personal diary and the seemingly random scribble, she conveys the anxiety, restless, decadence, fear and ethical entanglement of our society and our personal existence to viewers in a way like a code word. In watching these paintings, we will fall into deep thought and feel uneasy. Behind the ambiguous images, something is unpredictable and disturbing, the things seem to exist in our dreams but in the meantime, they are so similar to the real world we live in and seems to be the cause that we can be uncomfortable and lead to hypothetic conjectures. When we see the titles of Ma's paintings, we are likely definitely to find some enigmatic things.

  • The Watchers
    By Travis Walker
    Located in Denver, CO
    For the last 10 years Travis Walker has made landscape paintings about Jackson Hole, a place that never ceases to inspire him to pick up his brushes. He works on location, capturing the essence of the seemingly mundane scenes around town: an old salon, a decaying house with a fence made of skis, a vintage trailer park. His work is influenced by the work of American regionalists Edward Hopper and Grant Wood, Japanese printmaking, and German Expressionism. Travis Walker is the founder and director of Teton Artlab, a nonprofit arts organization that provides studio space for artists. He was born in 1976 in Tokyo, Japan, and earned his BFA in Painting and Printmaking in 2000 from Virginia Commonwealth University. Recent group exhibitions include the 2012 Western Visions Show and Sale and the 2013 and 2012 Takin' It to the Streets Art Fair, among many others. Solo exhibitions include "American Dreams" in 2012 at Cowboy Coffee...
