Presented in this exhibition are the latest breakthroughs in the artist\u2019s practice. Zeng Fanzhi: Near and Far\/Now and Then will premiere two recent bodies of work by the artist: new abstract paintings and the debut of works on handmade paper rendered in ink, graphite, chalk, and gold dust, among other mineral pigments. Emerging from the artist\u2019s decades of research in color theory, Zeng\u2019s new oil paintings draw on and challenge Impressionist and Pointillist practices, with layers of brushwork creating figurative elements that are readily recognizable from afar but dissolved when viewed up close.<\/p>\n

Zeng\u2019s works on handmade paper, rendered in ink, graphite, chalk, gold dust, and other mineral pigments, ambitiously combine Christian, Buddhist, and literati iconography, pointing to a new direction in his practice.<\/p>\n

This exhibition is organized by the Los Angeles County Museum of Art.<\/p>\n

The exhibition is co-curated by Michael Govan, CEO and Wallis Annenberg Director, and Stephen Little, Florence and Harry Sloan Curator of Chinese Art and Department Head, Chinese, Korean, and South and Southeast Asian Art.<\/p>\n

Major support is provided by East West Bank, Mr. and Mrs. Cheung Chung Kiu, Simian Foundation, Clara Wu Tsai, and Hauser & Wirth. Support for this exhibition is also generously provided by LACMA\u2019s Global Ambassadors.<\/p>\n
