Sun Xun , The History You Can Not See-4 , 2013,Painting,Acrylic On Paper,50*30cm
The exhibition showcases 43 works created between 2012-2014 under various art residency programme in different countries, some of which has been exhibited at 2012 Kochi-Muziris Biennale, India and
“My Generation: Young Chinese Artists” presented by the Tampa Museum of Art and Museum of Fine Arts, St. Petersburg last year. In addition, Sun Xun will paint live in ShanghART Singapore on “the spur of the moment”, the artwork will be presented alongside with the rest.
Sun Xun’s creations often correspond to events happening in reality. During his residency at STPI back in 2013, his artwork “Republic of Jing Bang” – a pseudo country was originated to reflect a multiracial co-existence, and a harmonious country governed with critical strategies. Ironically, the exhibition was cancelled due to a riot outbreak in Little India. The incident seems to be a contrasting occurrence in relation to Sun Xun’s work. Reflected in his art, Sun Xun has always been concerned with the world issues and events, how his work probes and opens a dialogue with the world.
