What is Chinese contemporary art?

Chinese Contemporary Art is marked by a wide range of styles and experimental approaches. In the 1980s, avant-garde exhibitions were often shut down by government officials. The 1990s saw the rise of political pop and cynical realism, while China's One-Child Policy influenced artists to explore the individual as a subject matter.

Intaglio is a printmaking technique where the artist creates marks on a metal plate that hold ink or dye. The inked plate is then pressed onto paper, transferring the ink to the sheet. This process can be repeated multiple times depending on the technique. Intaglio methods, such as etching, often involve applying a mordant (acid) to the metal plate to create the design. Intaglio encompasses various techniques, including engraving, etching, and drypoint.

Spatialism

Spatialism

(14 works, 6 for sale)

Spatialism is an art movement that originated in Italy in 1947, founded by Lucio Fontana with the intention of synthesizing sound, color, movement, and space into a new form of art. The movement's central ideas were outlined in Fontana's first manifesto, published in 1947, where he introduced the concept of spatial art to capture the spirit of the post-war era. His ideas were further developed in five subsequent manifestos. Although Fontana's ideas were sometimes considered vague, his influence was significant, as he was one of the first European artists to emphasize art as a performance and gesture.
