Xu Lei “New Works”
Marlborough (Midtown)
This event has ended.
Marlborough Gallery presents Xu Lei: New Works, an exhibition of works in Chinese ink and mineral pigments on silk by Xu Lei. The exhibition is the artist’s first solo exhibition with Marlborough Gallery. While Xu Lei has been a prominent artistic figure in his native China since the mid-1980s, this occasion marks his first major solo exhibition in the United States.
Trained in classic Chinese painting techniques, and using traditional tools, the artist, who has had ties with the avant-garde “85 New Wave” movement, utilizes his own visual language in order to explore the relationship between the notions of “emptiness” and “phenomenal form.”
