BANK is delighted to present Geng Yini’s Heat Wave as the solo exhibition project for FORMOSA 101 Art Fair, taking place at Taipei Expo Park from 12 May to 15 May 2016.
Geng Yini is one of the most feisty artists working in China today. In Heat Wave, a boxing ring becomes a forum where perceptions of beauty contend with the innate human tendency to take things to the extreme. Through thick, impasto paint a motley cast of uncouth folk - body builders, apes, and wrestlers - are made fantastical and humorous. With a technique that is equal parts social-realism, graffiti, and expressionism Geng’s surfaces and palate is alive with rabid splendor. Athletes with super human physiques inflate the idea of classical beauty into a debauched caricature of vigor. Images of prickly cacti juxtaposed with those of contact sports and King Kong reveal nature’s intrinsic ferocity. For Geng Yini, Heat Wave is a metaphor for the uncontrollable, extreme and absurd forces of nature all around us.
BANK荣幸宣布将携耿旖旎个展项目“热浪”参与福尔摩沙101国际艺术博览会,艺博会将于2016年5月12日至5月15日在台北市花博公园举行。
耿旖旎是当代中国最不惧争议的青年艺术家之一。在“热浪”中,拳击台成为了论坛,探讨了人们在审美观念中先天的好走极端的倾向。在厚重的颜料笔触下混杂着一群由幻想和幽默所造就的粗野之徒—--健美先生、人猿和摔跤手。在技巧上均衡利用了社会写实主义、街头涂鸦、表现主义的手法使耿旖旎的作品画面和色彩极其绚丽而鲜活。拥有超人般强健体魄的运动员将经典审美的观念膨胀成了精力四射的堕落漫画。带刺的仙人掌的图像被与接触性运动和金刚并置,揭示了自然的暴虐本质。对耿旖旎而言,“热浪”是对我们所无法控制的、极端而又荒诞的自然之力的隐喻。
