Zhang Xiaogangs Artworks Show:
- The most critical contribution of the Bloodline series is that it reveals the faces of modern Chinese. Zhang’s portraits provide a deep and yet carefully traditional impression of the face, and suddenly give Chinese the chance to see their appearance clearly. His works can be considered the neoclassical representations of modern people, and public representations of modern China.
- In Zhang’s paintings, a person is not a mere individual; he is an individual within a society or family, who possesses a strong hereditary trait or code from society. Furthermore, the artist’s personal experiences are the foundation for such societal code or hereditary gene.
- He goes from portrayals of members of a family to depictions of mundane household wares, and then to landscapes from memory and experience. Through the portrayals of family to the sceneries surrounding a family, the artist presents a unique modern culture, which associates the intimacy of oneself to history, memory and ideology. It’s precisely due to this culture that we are given the opportunity to establish a new kind of dimensional understanding on the basis of the modern day culture.
