‘Negative Reading | Reading Negatives’, a Solo Exhibition of New Works by Chinese Artist Qin Yifeng

White Cube Hong Kong is pleased to present ‘Negative Reading | Reading Negatives’, a solo exhibition of new works by Chinese artist Qin Yifeng. Both artist and scholar, Qin is a collector of Ming dynasty furniture. During his decades of collecting, it is the damaged pieces of furniture that have most passionately interested him, for he sees them as a metaphor for the changes in Chinese traditional values. Using his antique wooden furniture as the subject, he creates negative images using a large-format camera.

Born in 1961 and raised in Shanghai where he continues to live and work, Qin mastered calligraphy as a child, the essence of which – its spiritual dimension and formal aesthetic – has deeply influenced his entire artistic practice including the photographs in this exhibition. Equally, his early investigations as an abstract painter are evident in the inherent flatness of the negative film that he uses to make these recent images. In 1992, Qin established a painting style called ‘Xian Chang’ (field of lines), in which the cube, constructed of lines, was used as a basis to explore compositions of lines and planes, the relationship between two and three dimensions and the overlapping and ‘twisting’ of painterly space. Since abandoning the cube, he has gradually developed a style of ‘pureness’, with a more solemn and tranquil use of color in pared-down images that are concerned with formal aesthetics, spatial relationships and atmosphere.

When: September 4–November 6, 2019

Where: White Cube Hong Kong, 50 Connaught Road, Central, Hong Kong
