"Wang Chuan : 8 Great Sites of Beijing (2008 to 2009)"
2009-06-20 until 2009-08-10
Pekin Fine Arts
Beijing, , CN China

"8 Great Sites of Beijing" is the 1st solo-show at Pekin Fine Arts for Wang Chuan, head of the photography department of Beijing's Central Academy of Fine Arts. The exhibit centers on eight historic sites of Beijing, each depicted in one panoramic landscape color photo shot, revealing real places stripped of nostalgia or historical reference. Pekin Fine Arts promotes their artists with a Gallery Portfolio at absolutearts.com.

Using digital pixel-comprised imagery, Wang digs beneath the surface of the subject photo, unearthing the fundamental "compressed" features of Beijing. The pixilated images reveal traces of history amidst Beijing's policy of unbridled construction to achieve a more "civilized" city.

For further information and images, please see their website or contact the Gallery.
