  • Galerie Magda Danysz
    Press release SLEEPING BEAUTY GROUP SHOW PARIS 21 FEB – 4 APRIL 2015 Prune Nourry, Hand Machine, 2012 – Christian Gonzenbach, Chicken kit, 2002 Magda Danysz gallery presents from February 21st to April 4th the exhibition SLEEPING BEAUTY. This event shows together the artists of the gallery through a selection of emblematic works. Magda Danysz shows face-to- face various artworks from Prune Nourry’s sculptures, billboard works by VHILS or Peikwen Cheng’s photos. SLEEPING BEAUTY is built up as a "vis à vis" of artworks that dialogue one with the other. The inherent power laying in each particular artwork, their inner meaning and underlying significations is something the SLEEPING BEAUTY show aims at focusing on. Each artwork is presented in a "face à face" with another artwork. The choice of each of these one to one dialogues is made to accentuate the power of each artpiece. One will revolve around the idea of power with Zhang Dali's "Second History" painting and Ma Kang's "Forbidden city - Chairman Mao" photograph. In another part of the show one will discover Prune Nourry's artistically enhanced "Hand Machine" facing swiss artist Christian Gonzenbach industrial chicken sculpture. Human creative intelligence sometimes morphs into a mechanical hybrid evolution many artists point out in their works. This sleeping power/beauty is also at stake in Shepard Fairey's propaganda imagery showcased through an extensive collection of his prints. What lays behind these marketed images is also the paradox of our societies. Beyond the powerful reflections she created between the works, SLEEPING BEAUTY is also an opportunity to discover a wide collection of screenprints by Shepard Fairey.

This group exhibition brings together contemporary artists from China/Hong Kong/Japan using different media and forms of works to present a seascape or an abstract sea. The Ocean is enriched with history. Ten thousand years ago, ice sheets melted fiercely, rising tide of water inundated the land between the New Guinea Islands and Australia and engulfed the Bering Land Bridge. Since then, various small civilizations had been trapped in their respective worlds and forgotten for centuries. With the expedition of the "Great Waterway", the dots across the world were reconnected via ships in forms of colonization, trading, monetary flows, and exchange of cultures. And Hong Kong is one of the civilizations derived from such currents. 17/F, H Queen’s, 80 Queen’s Road Central, Central, Hong Kong Tel: 2851-1171 Email: [email protected] www.ora-ora.com Evidently, the bond between man and the ocean is not limited to their interdependence of existence.

Sastry 1 The City in the Mist: Imagining Shanghai in Yang Yongliang’s Phantom Landscapes Avani Sastry Many of Yang Yongliang’s landscapes are illusions – from a distance, they resemble traditional Chinese ink landscape paintings, albeit enlarged and edited, but close inspection reveals mountains composed of looming high-rises, coastlines of accumulated debris, and birds replaced by construction cranes (Figure 1). In Phantom Landscape III – Forbidden City (2007), Yang undermines the illusion he establishes in other works in the series, stopping the viewer from reading the landscape as a historic painting (Figure 2). He still evokes the conventions of shanshuihua (“mountain-and-water”) ink paintings, such as the heavy use of mist, the rising skyscrapers that evoke cascading mountains, and the inclusion of seals and colophons. However, the landscape is obstructed by traffic signs that emerge from the mist.

With Spermbar, she creates at Central Park a bar where the visitor drinks a cocktail composed from his own physical characteristics – for example, brown eyes correspond to nutty flavour. With her previous work Holy Daughters, Prune Nourry highlighted the selective abortions on female foetuses in India and raised the woman’s place in Indian society.

Mickle iii THESIS ABSTRACT Alexandra W. Mickle Master of Arts Department of the History of Art and Architecture June 2016 Title: Art Beyond the Generic City: Yang Yongliang’s Photo Composites 2007-2012 This thesis examines the digital photo composites of Chinese artist Yang Yongliang (b. 1980, Shanghai) from 2007-2012 by selecting three distinct series that focus on three cities. This thesis approaches Yang’s Shanghai-based digital landscape prints (shuma shanshui), his 2012 series A Bowl of Taipei, and his 2010 series Greece, Greece and investigates how they relate to Asian art history, contemporary art discourse, and urban theories, including Rem Koolhaas’s 1995 essay “The Generic City.” This thesis moves beyond the simple binaries with which Yang’s works are often described – past versus present, nature versus city, tradition versus modernity – dichotomies similar to those used to characterize recent urbanization in most major cities, as observed in Koolhaas’s writing.
