Gao Xintong | Abstract Echoes: London

1 - 13 Марта 2024

Young emerging artist Gao Xintong (b. 1998 in Liaoning, China) graduated

from the National Academy of Fine Arts in Carrara, Italy, and he’s now

rapidly gaining international attention due to his bold and innovative

compositions. Gao Xintong’s artistic practice focuses on deconstructing

and reconstructing visual elements through the use of vivid colours. His

work can be perceived as a “Portrait Shan-Shui” where the emphasis

is on the subjectivity of the painted object and empty spaces play a

significant role in the composition. Like in the ancient Taoist philosophy,

emptiness in his work is conceived as a dynamic force, which enables

each depicted element to emerge and gain vitality.
