Artist Statement:
Shanghai Series Collection

Main Concept
A new series of exceptional
paintings seeks to get under
the skin of modern Shanghai,
capturing not the bombastic
and the clichéd but instead
the highly individual – a
fleeting moment,a reflex
action or a brief
conversation. It deconstructs
the constant interaction of
humans in this vast
city,breaking the complexities
of life down into mere scraps
of time or fractions of
memories.

Gary.Tankf’s latest series
combines his interest with the
intimate and immediate with a
playful
commentary on the plethora of
people inhabiting China’s most
arresting and riotous city.
Continuing his signature use
of bold colours and evocative
subtext, his works convey his
everpresent struggle for
discovery alongside new and
potent explorations of
sensuality and a biting sense
of humour. This combined with
new-found inspirations from
Pop-Art makes this not only
Gary.Tankf’s most
controversial, but also his
most accomplished exhibition
yet.


Gary.Tan KF Is currently
living in Shanghai, China.

Gary.Tan KF, painting since
the age of 8, was inspired by
the abundant paddy fields and
the charismatic fishermen's
village of his hometown,
Tanjung Karang Malaysia.
In KF’s paintings, the viewer
