I argue that by adapting the well-known patriotic story of General Yue Fei in Chinese history, Zhou Yingfang suggests new directions in grand historical narrative in her own voice and from her own perspective. Negotiating the writing conventions of earlier legends, she turns the stereotyped masculine image of Yue Fei into a hero in both public and domestic settings.

  • Wang Tiande: Transforming Art by Collecting
    Wang Tiande: Transforming Art by Collecting ARTISTS AS COLLECTORS ang Tiande (b. 1960) is among China’s leading contemporary ink artists. Trained in Chinese painting and Wcalligraphy at the Zhejiang Academy of Fine Arts (now China Academy of Art), Wang is well versed in classical aesthetics and literati idealism, but remains conscious not to let tradition limit his creativity. After years of experimentation, one day during an art residency in Paris in 2002 he accidentally burned a mark on some Xuan paper and noticed its beauty. Recognizing the chance to develop a unique style, he devoted the next 15 years to evolving and perfecting it by using incense sticks to create silhouettes of calligraphy and paintings, one stroke at a time. Wang attributes his most recent artistic inspiration to collecting. He rummages through ancient calligraphy, ink paintings and stone tablets for pieces that resonate with his creative impulse. His pictorial language, comprising burned marks on bast paper, meticulously layered onto an ink painting he has done on Xuan paper, and sometimes audaciously mounted over an original ancient work, invites reflection on the synthesis of past and present, technicality and spirituality, legacy and potential. His multifaceted approach to incorporating antiquity into his new works prompts criticism as well as admiration from both contemporary artists and antique collectors, and curiosity from all. In preparation for his forthcoming solo exhibition at the Guangdong Museum of Art, the artist committed himself to an arduous programme of solitary work throughout the summer. In the heat of August, Xin de la Guerrande visited Wang in his Shanghai studio on behalf of Orientations to discuss his experiences as a collector and the rationale behind his creations.
