CHEN ZHEN ‘Short-circuits’

solo show

curated by Vicente Todolí

Pirelli HangarBicocca

Milano, Italy

Opening: Wednesday 14 October 2020 | from 5pm 

https://pirellihangarbicocca.org/en/exhibition/chen-zhen/

This solo show is an intense and explosive dive into Chen Zhen’s career. Some of his most recogniseable and iconic works are on display in the huge spaces of Pirelli HangarBicocca in Milan. They not only present his wish to find a visual synergy but also his desire to integrate the aesthetic dimension of his homeland and his story into the places he encountered.

Organized by the Smart Museum of Art in Hyde Park with Wrightwood 659 in Lincoln park, this exhibition presents 45 works made from a range of unique and humble materials. The works are complementary in form, material and visual effect that inspire us to ask questions about relationship to the material world as well as examining the correlation between Chinese art and global contemporary art trends.
