Sinopsis
An intimate look at paintings, objects, and installations by one of the most intriguing personalities on the contemporary Chinese art scene; a survey of the artist’s oeuvre from 2007 to 2015. Su Xiaobai hails from a prominent generation of artists who left China in the wake of political and cultural experimentation in the 1980s. He adopted lacquer, a medium traditionally used by Chinese craftsmen, as his explorative means and fashioned a sensuous yet rigorous art practice that defies classification. Inspired but not constrained by Chinese artisanship and aesthetics, Su Xiaobai creates gargantuan compositions that speak, in a language informed by Western abstraction, the Buddhist mantra "All reality is a phantom; all phantoms are real." Luscious and mysterious, his body of work is defiantly sculptural yet exquisitely delivered―a constellation of extraordinary objects.

De la contraportada
One of the most prestigious artists in Chinese contemporary art, Xiaobai Su is among a generation of legendary artists who left China in the 1980s. He adopts lacquer, a medium steeped in Chinese history, as his aesthetic means, and has developed a sensuous yet rigorous art practice that defies classification. Driven by Chinese tradition, Xiaobai Su creates intriguing and magnificent work that speaks a Western language of visual abstraction, with the Buddhist mantra "All reality is a phantom, and all phantoms are real" as its core. Luscious and mysterious, his body of work is defiantly sculptural yet exquisitely delivered - a constellation of extraordinary objects.
