About the Item

A Rockery in the Middle of a Dry Lake, Shandong - Zhang Kechun (Landscape) Signed and numbered on artist label on reverse of mount Archival pigment print, mounted on aluminium Available in multiple sizes 29 1/2 x 39 1/4 inches, from an edition of seven + 1ap 39 1/4 x 47 inches, from an edition of seven + 1ap 45 x 58 inches, from an edition of 3 + 1 AP Zhang Kechun produces epic vistas that dwell on the significance of the landscape in modern Chinese national identity. Zhang’s first series The Yellow River documents the effects of modernisation along the third longest river in Asia. He found inspiration for the series in Chengzhi Zhang’s novel River of the North. The project took him on a journey along the river from the coastal flats of Shandong to the mountains of Qinghai on a fold-up bicycle, all the time carrying with him a large format Linhof camera. Zhang’s second series, Between the Mountains and the Water, continued to explore the relationship between the people and the land on which they live and work. His sublime views of the industrial wastelands consuming rural China are invested with both political and sociological pertinence. Whilst he imbues the altered landscape of China with a tragic beauty, his photographs also are often witty, showing the frequently absurd scenarios in which the inhabitants of the river’s surroundings find themselves.
