  So, finally in our time of overused images of popular leaders and heroes, standing in front of his canvasses in Liu Wei’s studio, I could see a genuine artist’s clarity as well as his confusion, his exploration and his hard work, as he tried to create a contemporary art from a vocabulary that could easily be dismissed as cliché. Here were all the colors, techniques, styles, symbols and ideas that have been continuously and tirelessly smeared, created, subverted, imitated, flattered, exploited, re-created, re-converted and re-repeated by previous artists.

  However, this time I saw a fresh breakthrough. The creative mind of the artist reflects the fullness and maturity of his 34 years. Still not tamed by the mighty market, the artist is seriously and steadily trying to create his own unique painting language.

  The “Dimensions” paintings series were completed between 2005 and 2008. The viewer will see through the ink surfaces of these portraits of leaders, popular heroes, beauties and beasts, and find an aesthetic experience of optical illusion, distortion and blurring. After a process of self-examination and discovery, finding his own answers to the limitations of the dimensions of the canvas as well as its possibilities, Liu Wei is currently working in a three dimensional space to explore his creativity. This exhibition contains Liu Wei’s debut installation. He is, as he puts it, “very satisfied” with it.

  Just like with love, the process is more important than the outcome. The bitterness and difficulties of Liu Wei’s work only make the final taste richer and more sweet, just like a love story. Now Liu Wei has only just taken his girl by the hand, and hopes to experience many more passions and unknown mysteries, without ever suffering the curse of boredom.

  Let us watch and see!
