'Hand in Hand' opening Saturday

Hand in Hand / 6 人行

Contemporary lacquer group exhibition

August 29 to September 20

Opening reception: Saturday, August 29, 4:00 to 6:00 pm

Lacquer painting is a laborious process: preparing just the canvas requires layers of lacquer and linen cloths applied to plywood. Lacquer artists meticulously incorporate tree sap, egg shells, dyes and minerals, blending natural and sometimes artificial materials to capture aesthetic visions.

‘Hand in Hand’ features six young artists committed to reviving this ancient art form. They are both bearers of tradition and pioneers of new concepts and techniques.

Artists:

Jin Hui

Kou Yan

Xie Zhen

Zhang Yi

Xu Jin

Chen Yu

6人行

当代漆艺群展

8月29日—9月20日

开幕酒会：8月29日，周六下午4点到6点

漆画创作是繁复的，仅准备画板就需在底板上几层漆、并以亚麻布密封。漆艺家以天然漆或化学漆入画，为求达到视觉上的美观，还将树脂、蛋壳、染料及金属粉融入画布中。

“6人行”当代漆艺群展汇聚了六位投身于漆艺--这一传统艺术形式的年轻艺术家。他们代表着传统工艺的传承，同时代表着全新理念和技法的继往开来。
