Mark your calendar! Legendary Chinese Sculptor Liu Shiming’s work come to US again, at WTC Oculus This Week!

Welcome to the world of Liu Shiming, one of China’s most accomplished sculptors. Liu (1926-2010) spent a lifetime absorbing China’s cultural traditions and expressing them in his own delightful way. His work is well known in China but has never been presented in the West — until now. This display is part of a globally traveling exhibition organized by Central Academy of Fine Arts.

The 56 sculptures here cover Liu’s full career of more than half a century. As you will see, Liu’s favorite subject was people—laborers , parents, infants. “When we lose people and the human spirit, art loses its soul,” he once said . To truly understand China’s people, he left Beijing early in his career to live and work in the provinces. He immersed himself in the people and their customs. Then he recreated those lives through sculpture, guided by ancient Chinese art styles. Although he was formally trained in art and carefully studied Rodin, Liu’s own work owes more to the Han dynasty (206 BC-280 AD) than to the western art trends popular during his lifetime.

This display is divided into four parts, starting with “Innocence”. Liu loved sculpting small children—and seeing the world through their eyes. The “Roots” section shows Liu’s reverence for his predecessors; he got the ideas for many of the pieces while working for seven years in artifact restoration at the National Museum of Chinese History. “Working” reflects the importance he placed on ordinary laborers and a good day’s work. Finally, “Individuals” celebrates people and animals creating and pursuing their own particular lives, just as Liu himself did. We hope you enjoy the exhibit.

has officially launched on August 8th.

The blanc gallery is a gallery that walks the blurry line between art and design. The branding of the gallery fully corresponds to the mood and atmosphere of the interior design – modern, geometric and minimalist, featuring a neutral color palette along with natural wood.

The visual designer analyzed interior design elements of the gallery, such as the arched front door, curved ceiling, and classic curved window, reinterpreting them in a contemporary way that emphasizes the gallery's character.

The sans serif typeface partially submerged into a white space, therefore achieving purer geometric shapes and an almost spatial-visual harmony, which resulting in infusing the minimalism of a contemporary art gallery with the warmth and sophistication.
