A contemporary art collection exhibition titled “What Makes a Space Great” is being held at iADC Mall in Bao’an District.

Curated by Gan Ting and Jiang Yiyi, the exhibition features eight artists: Cai Qian, He Jiandan, Qi Yutian, Shen Qin, Tang Bohua, Tan Ping, Wang Huaxiang and Wang Xiao.

The curators selected 33 sets of artworks with the aim of creating a series of contrasts: young artists and veterans, abstract and figurative, acrylic and ink, tradition and contemporary, China and the West.

Tan is a master who uses pure abstract language to express the impact of mind and reason in an independent and serious manner. His abstract creation at the exhibit reconstructs psychological time through images, color and lines. As one of the leaders of the contemporary ink and wash world, Shen presents abstract paintings with refined traditional Chinese painting skill. In an attempt at ink painting, He chose another path by creating the vivid and novel story with classic Eastern and Western characters. Tang made an animation with 10,000 pieces of gypsum board.

The curators said they believe in the power of art, which shapes and transforms human beings and space.
