Dictionary

  • Data di creazione1991
  • Dimensioni206.0 x 305.0 cm
Shortly after finishing his monumental Ink Handscroll, Liu decided to try using watercolors for the first time, choosing a small family dictionary as his subject. Published circa 1937, the dictionary contained neither simplified characters nor Communist-inflected rhetoric. Liu’s Dictionary, therefore, can be read as a subtle commentary on how language influences the cultural identity and personal freedom of its users. Through meticulously creating effects that mimic the original object’s age and use, Liu insists on a microscopic way of looking—examining an ordinary object methodically and painstakingly, then using his art to transform it into something monumental.

Liu Dan (1953 –)

Esplora gli intricati acquerelli a inchiostro di Liu Dan, che fondono tradizione cinese e realismo occidentale. Catturando l'energia taoista, egli ravviva l'apprezzamento per le pietre degli studiosi.
