REDSEA Gallery presents a solo exhibition, The Kung-Fu Series, by award-winning Chinese-born, Australian artist, Zhong Chen; an internationally exhibited artist recognised for his vibrant, contemporary work exploring issues of cultural identity, belonging and place.
Crossing the divide from the back streets of Shanghai to the exuberance of contemporary Australian culture, Chen’s works from ‘The Kung-Fu Series’ draw inspiration from traditional Chinese art with bold, gestural brushstrokes complemented by minimal colours and composition that follow a more Western structure to reflect the artists’ own life journey from East to West.
A three-time Finalist in The Archibald Prize, Wynne Prize and Sulman Prizes, Chen has also received great acclaim from art critics and collectors through international exhibitions in Beijing, Hong Kong, New York as well as Australia. His work is held in numerous private and corporate collections in Australia, Japan, China, Taiwan, Hong Kong, New York, Paris, Switzerland and London.
