The sketches and 12 large works on view at the University Museum and Art Gallery although simple in form, are able to express his interpretation of this theory of self-sublimation. By using multiple layers of ink on paper to create textured black spaces, both shiny and matt, the artist invites the spectator to penetrate his works and contemplate. Yang has participated in many solo and group exhibitions throughout Europe, Asia and the US, notably the Shanghai Biennale 1998, the Los Angeles Art Fair 1999, and Asiart 99 Biennale in Genoa, Italy. The Paris-based artist will also be present. All are welcome.
Admission is free.
