RedBox Studio, in partnership with Alexander Ochs Galleries Berlin Beijing is presenting an installation of figure sculptures by Wang Shugang at the atrium of The Opposite House.

The exhibition is made up of bronze figures, giving the space a different dynamic.

Wang is an accomplished Beijing-based artist who returned to China in 2000 after developing his career for over a decade in Germany. He lives and works in Beijing. His works have been widely exhibited between China, America and Europe and are publicly displayed in China, Germany and Canada.

As a graduate of the prestigious Central Academy of Fine Arts in Beijing, Wang demonstrates an exceptional command of the traditional medium in his sculptures, combining the figuration of 20th century Realism with Buddhist iconography and scenes of daily life in China.

The conflict between tradition and modernity and the palpable loss of history and culture in the midst of rapid urbanization and artificial mass production often result in themes of nostalgia and reflection for Wang and his contemporaries.

His figurative work, strengthened when viewed en masse, displays a rich expression of the sense of community and, when displayed in an urban landscape, provides a playful reflection on the quiet moments of daily life in China.

Time: Until March 31.

Address:The Opposite House, The Village at Sanlitun, Building 1, 11 Sanlitun Beilu,
