A student in the Bachelor 3 direct entry in Cultural Production specializing in visual arts and exhibitions, Jeanne Wen completed her PGR: an art exhibition at the Francis Barlier gallery in Paris.
The exhibition "La nouvelle poésie" by the artist Hugo Terracol and Xiao Qing is presented at the Galerie Francis Barlier in Paris from June 30 to July 4.
The opening will take place from 18h on June 30.
Hugo Terracol is influenced by the great postwar artists, such as Pierre Soulages, Hans Hartung, as well as American abstract expressionist artists. After meeting the great Chinese painter Zao Wou-Ki in 2006, he embarked on an irrepressible quest for the Orient in his painting and for the vital energies that animate it.
Hugo Terracol reclaims the free space of these Chinese compositions to combine it with a Western painterly breath.
Xiao Qing is an artist who lives and works in Paris. After a period of research, she chose traditional landscape as her main field of creation and study, focusing her energy on the meticulous exploration of the spirit of traditional Chinese landscapes, as well as their techniques and formal languages. Xiao Qing’s landscapes are the legacy of traditional Chinese landscapes, which she fuses with the aesthetics of her contemporaries, starting from sketches into which forms of Western abstract expressionism are introduced, thus creating a very particular "New Landscape" that offers the viewer a completely novel visual experience.
Hugo Terracol shows us a possible development of Western painting that integrates Chinese artistic concepts and brings a new artistic conception to the work. As a former traditional Chinese painter, Xiao Qing explores the perfect integration of Western art into her own works and has found her place in the Western art market.
