陈文令 Chen Wen Ling
Chen Wen Ling is a representative of China's contemporary artists. His art, besides presenting vividly and in concrete the complex relationship among animals living according to the law of jungle, is provocatively bringing to light crisis behind these pungent scenes, of morality, credibility and faith among men. This is indeed the nature of Chen's artistic conception. He employs fresh and vivid visual language to provide the audience a new way of seeing and understanding.

陳庆庆 Chen Qingqing
(b.1953) from Beijing studied Medicine and finished her English / German Literature Studies in Beijing and Vienna. Taking a big leap from her previous forte, she started installation creations and now works as a professional artist in Beijing in 1994. Since then, her works have been exhibited globally and collected by various private collectors. Chen Qing Qing’s detailed fabric art installation works are made by natural materials; silk, hemp, dry flower, paper or pearl. Her wide choices of medium used in her creations mesmerize the viewers and often draws them to investigate her interesting use of materials.

We deal with major visual experiences that have emerged from modern Chinese society, these experiences are concrete, realistic and unique, they can only appear in a society when the process of rapid economic development is not accompanied by a cultivation of aesthetic value. To employ photography to represent these experiences is far from being faithful to them. The best way to document such experiences is to take them as basis to depict more exciting scenes, they present more objective validity then; this is also the best approach to broad horizons of those visual experience as it provides us infinite possibilities.

馮 峰 Feng Feng
"We have a history once grand but not forgotten. Time washes away the insignificant pieces and also permanently marks the milestones. A pat romance, the memories worshipped with deep passion as the colors of the past fade. The storms and lightening of history leave us their marks of divine madness and violence. Let us stand back and observe it, grasp it and sense it ˇthe magnificence, power and charm, dignity and mysteryˇ In my mind, a painting is nothing more than a painting itself. I would prefer to say that I am more of a poet. It's a touch of loneliness and helplessness. Try to hear it and feel it ˇ it is absolute beauty, but unspeakable melancholy, unstoppable, overflowing out of the ruins of the looming Beijing City, the darkness and the mist."

龚 栋 Feng Zhengjie
Born in Fujian, China in 1977, Gong Dong graduated from the Fuzhou Art Institute, Sculpture Department. Gong Dong constantly draws inspiration from the abundance of life experiences as he feels that art will never move a viewer if it lacks real emotion. He strongly believes that art is a necessary pleasure that enhances the lives of individuals and humanity, saving it from being a barren life. He is particularly mindful of the usage of the philosophies and language of art. His sculptures have a few distinct features that make them stand out: accurate and sharp portrayals of emotion, a flair for simplicity and a meticulous attention to the smallest detail. As a contemporary sculptor – immersed in the developments of daily life and the influences of present-day schools of thought towards art – he is able to express his individual flair in his pieces whilst recognizing that these forms have to be infused with an air of modernity. He performs this infusion not with a separate, deliberate attempt to inject additional meaning to his pieces because it is required of him. Rather, they are derived from his particular intuition and experience in art, guiding him towards a natural expression that is uniquely his own.

劉 虹 Liu Hong
An oil painter who use females to test the bitter sweetness of life; this is what I know about Liu Hong. Female bodies painted by Liu Hong are always like quiet, emotional poems. They are pretty, calm and reserved, yet exudes a certain sadness. They seem to be singing very, very soundlessly. No matter they are set up in a background of black and white combination or in a background of emptiness, those realistic human bodies will provide you with some sort of indicative feeling...

"Mao Missiles" are one of the most instantly recognizable works by Liu Wei. These objects with a stretched distortion can be hilarious; yet at the same time contain darker historical references on China and her constant progression. His works are majorly shown in several international Museum exhibitions as well as in popular demand by private collectors and art institutions internationally!

罗氏兄弟 Luo Brothers
The three Luo Brothers, Luo Wei Dong, Luo Wei Bing and Luo Wei Guo, make works on paper, lacquer on wood panel, carved wood panels and statues out of lacquered resin. In all cases the works are riotous creations of kitsch. These works come from the side of the oriental nature that loves the bright lights and red lanterns that adorn every Chinese restaurant and city at festival time, that loves the peasant handicrafts KWV\IQVQVO UI[[M[ WN U]T\QKWTW]ZML ÆW_MZ[ \PI\ TW^M[ \PM NI\ JIJQM[ UMIV\ \W JZQVO XZW[XMZQ\a IVL []KKM[[ /Q^MV \PQ[ I[ \PMQZ [\IZ\QVO XWQV\ the three brothers have added the symbols of the new consumerism, now omnipresent in their country, as well as the symbols of the communist revolution into which they were born. In their series "The World's Most Famous Brands" most of the world's foreign consumer products have been held aloft by a Luo brothers" bouncing baby. This is undoubtedly the chaotic mix that artists like the Luo Brothers see every day. In fact, when one thinks about it, the same mix can be found in other cultures around the world. However, what is so different about the Chinese experience is the way it has happened so quickly.

There are a number of works about the Revolution Period in Chinese history, mostly being labeled as "political pop art"or "cynical realism". Many times these works feature characters that are either warped, numb or abnormal. However, the young girls in Lv Yanjun's paintings are amazingly beautiful. In fact, they often remind us of the beauty and youthfulness that were throttled during those mad years. Sometimes in Lv's paintings the characters are disproportional, but such disproportion embodies a sculpture-like, aesthetic feeling of solemnity and peacefulness, IVL \PQ[ Q[ I JMI]\QN]T NMMTQVO _Q\PW]\ N]Z\PMZ ZMI[WVQVO 4QSM PW_ \PM NIUW][ +PQVM[M XIQV\MZ 9Q *IQ[PQ WVKM [IQL _WVLMZ M`Q[\[ JM\_MMV TQSMVM[[ ]VTQSMVM[[ The essence of sacristy comes into full view through Lv's works; that art is not just a blinded replica of reality, but a powerful and hearty expression of the spirit in real life.

He becomes interested in the window models which can be seen everywhere along the streets of large cities. Walter Benjamin's description of the streets and shop windows of western cities as well as the loafers or vagrants wandering around the cities at night is, to a great extent, applicable to today's urban scenes in China. The models in the shop windows symbolize the commercial society and also represent the indifference of the consumption society. People are attached to the idolized symbolic landscapes and even abandon themselves to such attachment which is, in nature, not real at all. Liao's new paintings IZM NZMM NZWU ]VQÅML QLWTQbML [\QNN NIKM[ IVL M`XZM[[QWV 1V[\MIL PM I\\IKPM[ QUXWZ\IVKM \W ZMXZM[MV\I\QWV WN \PM QV\MZIK\Q^M ZMTI\QWV[ IUWVO I OZW]X WN UWLMT[ 5WZMW^MZ PQ[ _Ia WN ZMXZM[MV\I\QWV Q[ VW\ QVÆ]MVKML Ja \PM XTIVM \ZMI\UMV\ UM\PWL XZM^ITMV\ QV \PM K]ZZMV\ IZ\ ÅMTL The heads of the characters are even enveloped by clothes-what the artist wants to show us is the materialized world where people's real natures compromise to the materialized desires. For this purpose, the artist weakens the bodies of models, which seem to be hard as rocks, with his own loose way of representation of lump structures. In this way, his artistic way of representing the urban consumption atmosphere emerged. On one hand, he grasps the indifferent and dying pulse of the consumption society; on the other hand, he tries to change such a pulse with drawing skills. It is the contradictory way of representation of the characters in the paintings that explains why the new works of Liao Zhenwu are critical of the cultures and customs of the consumption society.

I think it is highly interesting to express one's thoughts and feelings into a kind of unsophisticated form, more valuable than fuss over lifeless symbols or concepts.

凡 Yu Fan
In his modern ambition to 'construct human beings' Yu Fan believes that if sculptures do not refer to actuality then they have to advance on the way of symbol-spirituality. He is, in effect, attempting to unify Chinese traditional "man of Nature" with the modern subject, namely to combine into this man the compassion NWZ ITT TQ^QVO JMQVO[ _Q\P \PM UWLMZV VW\QWV WN [IKZQÅKM <PQ[ Q[ KMZ\IQVTa VW\ UMZMTa IV I\\MUX\ \W ZMQV^QOWZI\M TIVO]IOM \W ZMQV[\I\M \PM [IUM NWZU or fashion the spirit, the reconstruction of spirit and form is of the same 'principle' (body), language is the shape of the proper principle while this shape is both subject and shape. -`\ZIK\ML NZWU \PM [XQZQ\ WN [PIXM" UIV IVL Q\[ NWZU QV A] [ [K]TX\]ZM _ZQ\\MV Ja BP] 9Q

Immediately humorous and sympathetic, Yue Minjun's paintings offer a light-hearted approach to philosophical enquiry and contemplation of existence.

Often basing his compositions on well known European masterpieces and iconic Chinese art, Yue subverts the grandiose aura of art history through his adaptation of pop aesthetics. Using both the exaggerated expressiveness of cartooning and the stylistic rendering of graphic illustration, Yue depicts his cloned doppelgangers as contorted and grotesque, all scalded pink skin and maniacal toothy cackles.
