Jizi: Journey of the Spirit, a memorial
retrospective curated with the artist’s son, Chunchen Wang, presents a
selection of Jizi’s large scale ink paintings and a monumentally-sized
rarely-seen, scroll. Jizi’s work confronted the legacy of the
Revolution’s antipathy to religion and traditional Chinese life ways and
attitudes. Deeply interested in the spirit, the artist’s work contains a
strong metaphysical strain and sheds light on the complex, and at times
contradictory, impulses at work in contemporary Chinese art and
culture.
