Jia Yuan-Hua
Chinese Contemporary Art by Jia Yuan-Hua - Beautiful Snow

2025

About the Item

Acrylic on canvas, With frame 50 x 60 x 3 cm I love the snow scenery of the Forbidden City, so I paint it, and I hope you can feel the quiet beauty. As the most famous palace in the world, the Forbidden City has over six hundreds of years of history, old, beautiful, awesome, solemn and sacred. In China, there were uncounted relics like the Forbidden City. However, along with the pace of modernization, many many old buildings and historical relics now vanished, like the plum blossom, falling down to the ground, little left.The plum blossom is the symbol of traditional culture. Yuan hua Jia works mainly in oil and acrylic paintings. His works were shown in many big exhibitions of many countries, some are collected by important people and collectors. Using knife to carve on the surface of paint is his most representative form of creation, and it is also the most significant sign and feature that distinguishes him from other artists. This form of painting is extremely difficult. First, the canvas is soft and elastic. So the hand needs to be very steady. Secondly, affected by temperature and humidity, the paint surface will dry within 24-72 hours. Therefore, the carving must be completed accurately within a limited time. Each line will determine the progress and detail of the entire painting. Once the paint starts to dry on the surface, you can't continue but throw it away and start over. The larger the picture size and the more complex the content that needs to be engraved, the greater the risk of failure and the more canvases will be thrown away. There was once a 100x80cm work that failed more than a dozen times and took a year and a half to finally be completed. In addition to this art form, he also creates works in other artistic styles. Each artistic style of work reflects his unique perspective and ideas. Each work has its own story, which is his insights into his careful observation and experience of life. Jia Yuan-Yua is a Chinese artist born in 1980 who lives and works in Beijing, China. Jia works mainly with oil and acrylic in his painting. His contemporary artworks focus on social issues such as the protection of historical buildings, the inheritance of traditional culture, the conflict between tradition and contemporary times, education reform and the sustainable development of the natural ecological environment. There are two main forms of expression in his works. One is a common realistic technique known for paintings. The other is to use an oil painting knife for carving on the surface of the oil onto the canvas but the artist also creates lines in his artworks to express the outline of objects either existed or vanished.

Kings of the Renaissance Mohammad Ariyaei Contemporary Iranian art oriental art
By Mohammad Ariyaei
Located in Paris, FR
Acrylic paint on canvas Hand-signed Unique work THE THOUSAND AND ONE NIGHTS OF MOHAMMAD ARIYAEI " Gentleness and oriental wisdom follow the supercharged bubbling to which we were accustomed from the previous deliberately art brut exhibition by Mohammad ARIYAEI. The Iranian painter's imagination moves serenely from the wildest frenzy to the meditative calm of great, fabulous stories. The artist then took pleasure in pouring the volcanic torrent of his barbaric figures onto the delicate latticework with which he is accustomed to lining his backgrounds with the patience of an illuminating monk. Already sweetness and paroxysm coexisted. Now gentleness wins. The trained imagination of the painter, yet spontaneously bubbling, by instinct as much as by erudition, has no difficulty in reconnecting with the abundant oriental tradition of the thousand and one nights, which, like a long underground river, resurfaces at the light of his painting. Spring renewal of traditions still alive. Systematic filling of space, a sort of oriental version of the Riches Heures...

Dog Years - Brightly Colored Self Portrait of Artist as a Aqua Colored Dog
By Marcos Raya
Located in Chicago, IL
Raya, like every productive artist, is a collection of actions, utopias and talents. He is an acrylic painter and a muralist; an installation artist and a practitioner of the theory of the fragment as a synthesis of the whole; he is Chicano but his work has no passport; he is an obsessive self-portraitist (I, as the multiplicity locked within the I) and his an advocate of his community (in the fullest sense of the world); his is from Chicago and - being a nation onto himself - is a native of his art education; his yearns for the Tijuana of tomorrow while being a full-fledged inhabitant of the Tijuana of half a century back; he admires high-tech while being a fan of Frida Kahlo. --Carlos Monsivais Marcos Raya Dog Years oil on canvas 17h x 17w in 43.18h x 43.18w cm MSR054 Marcos Raya brings together old and new works in a variety of media that mostly explores the sociological impact of technological change. His paintings, collages and installations present an idiosyncratic hybrid of Mexican folklore...
