Cheer Bell Gallery Artist Jian | YIT x Fine Art Asia Online Art Auction2023.11.22 20:00 – 2023.11.26   21:30     Cheer Bell Gallery is pleased to announce our participation in “When Traditional Meets Contemporary” Online Art Auction, presented by YIT and Fine Art Asia. Seven pieces of artworks by Cheer Bell Gallery artist Jian (Lot no. 19 to 25) will be live for online bidding under the section "Contemporary Painting” starting from 22 Nov 2023, 8pm, and ending on 26 Nov 2023, 9:30pm. We sincerely invite you to join the auction and place your bids.   Download the “一条” app (https://www.yit.com/download?type=yit), or use the “一条”mini program in WeChat to join the auction. Bring all your favorite artworks home, and get yourself into the festive spirit!     About Jian   Jian, a seasoned Chinese artist with over four decades of experience, is a graduate of the Central Academy of Arts & Design (now the Academy of Arts & Design, Tsinghua University) where she majored in lacquer painting. After graduation, she further pursued her studies in lacquer art at Kanazawa College of Art in the 1990s. She moved to live abroad in the US for 18 years since 2000 which is also where contemporary and abstract traits in Jian’s works emerge. Her works have been showcased in international art exhibitions in China, South Korea, Japan, the United States, Taiwan, etc. with collectors all over the world. Though Jian’s artistic style appears to be abstract, she takes inspiration from ancient Chinese poetry and incorporates in her works figurative elements such as floral shapes and bird patterns that appeared in her dreams, fantasies, or fragments of life. It is essentially a reinterpretation of elements of flowers, water, and clouds in traditional Chinese poetry. The alternation and overlap between various texture in Jian’s works will surely evoke viewers’ sensation of synesthesia and stir one’s soul, as if an unbridled symphony envisioning a resplendent and kaleidoscopic world with colour as notes and texture as rhythm.

Artist Jian's work "Red and Blue" has been selected into the specially curated exhibition “Le Jardin à Fine Art Asia” at Fine Art Asia 2023, Hall 3C of Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre.   The special exhibition is a youthful and vibrant interpretation of antique collecting, presenting a range of antiques and artworks with a garden theme and the integration of artificial intelligence. Inspired by the symbolism of a garden, the special exhibition is dedicated to new audiences who are enthusiastic about exploring art collecting. A garden is often the first place we are exposed to the beauty of nature. It represents a microcosm of the vast diversity and grandeur that nature can offer. Whether one is looking to experience the intricacies of craftsmanship, touch the historical traces of antiquities, or simply appreciate the artworks at a close distance, we believe that one will discover hidden treasures in the exhibition that are available at a reasonable price and exceed one’s expectations. We hope this exhibition can kindle the passion for art collecting in aspiring collectors.

“Up Above the Sky” - Wang Jianxiao Solo Exhibition 2023 is open! Come visit us at Booth F6, Hall 3C, Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre, Wan Chai.
