Ding Yi “Lightscapes”

Timothy Taylor

This event has ended.

Timothy Taylor presents Lightscapes, a solo exhibition of works by Chinese artist Ding Yi (b. 1962), presented simultaneously at Timothy Taylor’s New York gallery at 515 West 19th Street and online in the Frieze Viewing Room, coinciding with Frieze New York 2021. This is the artist’s fifth exhibition with the gallery, comprising three paintings and six drawings, created specifically for the show. The exhibition will be accompanied by an interview with Alexandra Munroe, the Senior Curator of Asian Art, at the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum.

‘Although Ding is deeply embedded in the history of contemporary Chinese art and the avant-garde, his work goes beyond that. There are systems of thought and perspective that can shake our idea of a monolithic culture, and Ding Yi’s work is critical to this conversation: it has an insight that is unique, a sublime space and an emotion beneath the abstraction,’ says Munroe.
