About the Item

Wang Yan Cheng by Wang Yan Cheng. Published by Acquavella Contemporary Art, Inc., New York, 2019. 1st Ed Hardcover Exhibition Catalog with dust jacket. Acquavella Galleries presented their first exhibition of works by Wang Yan Cheng, from September 11 – October 18, 2019. This exhibition of new work, featuring 20 paintings from this year, is the artist’s first solo presentation in the United States. Since his early training as a representational artist, Wang Yan Cheng has developed a deep understanding of painting in terms of structure, color and technique. In recent years he has frequently gone beyond the “abstract.” He hopes to merge Eastern and Western aesthetic development, to guide people away from traditional concepts, and to feel the artist’s love for creation. Wang Yan Cheng’s foundation is never a pure canvas in the metaphoric sense. He has reached beyond the canvas with various methods to make the works “immersed and cultivated.” Using his ideas, he is able to exercise artistic control over his medium; his paintings thus inhabit a wonderful place between inevitability and chance and achieve “imperfect perfection.” NPT Books, a division of Trent Antiques, has a large collection of used and out of print books on art, architecture, decoration and antiques with a focus on 1st editions, signed and limited editions.
