金杜艺术中心将于2023年9月1日荣幸呈现：
“澄怀观道-冯建国摄影艺术收藏展”。
This exhibition marks the inaugural showcase of large-format photography and platinum-palladium print techniques at the KWM artcenter. Curated by Professor Zhang Gan, the director of the Contemporary Art Research Center at Tsinghua University. By providing a comprehensive panorama of Professor Feng Jianguo’s three-decade journey in photography, the exhibition features two distinct series: “Yellow Mountain,” and “Buddhism: Style of Power.”
Spanning both monochrome and coloured works, it showcases a comprehensive panorama of Professor Feng Jianguo’s prolific career in large-format photography — a ceaseless exploration and fearless innovation. The works presented in this exhibition are entirely crafted using the acid-free paper of Rising Museum Mounting Board and encased within China’s pioneering museum-grade, low-glare, anti-UV glass frames. The exquisite presentation of these high-quality photographic pieces will offer the audience a visual feast with delights for the senses.
Over the span of his three decades photographic odyssey, his oeuvre delves deep into the intricate interplay between humanity and nature, history, and culture. Through his lens, he captures the magnificent landscapes of our homeland and the everyday lives of the people, etching profound visual memories of our era. He also employs the mastery of large-format camera to bring forth his art, unveiling novel interpretations of the classical platinum-palladium printing process to present his works. All this dedication showcases the distinctive qualities of large-format photography – an ethos of relentless refinement, an aura of solemnity, and an embrace of timeless classical aesthetics.
We extend a heartfelt invitation for you to join us at the KWM artcenter during the exhibition. Immerse yourself in this immersive visual feast and experience the unique allure of Feng Jianguo’s large-format photography firsthand!
