CHONGQING (CQNEWS) -- At the Essence Contemporary Art Museum located on Nanbin Road, some visitors looked at the paintings and whispered “They are just pigments overturned by artists?” or “they are not finished, right?”. The exhibition entitled “Abstract Plus – New Possibility of Abstract Painting in China” recently opened at the museum.

According to the artists, this is the largest scale abstract art exhibition. Masterpieces from twenty domestic artists are showcased, and the show will last until February 28, 2018. The exhibition is free for audiences to challenge their aesthetics and test if they can understand such masterpieces.

Ding Yi, Meng Luding, Chen Wenji, Wang Yigang and others are famous among those who know about art. Such artists are the representatives of Chinese abstract art. For instance, Ding Yi is the pioneer of Chinese abstract artists and the first Chinese artist invited by Hermes to design scarves. This exhibition contains 33 masterpieces from 20 domestic abstract artists, and it is an experimental and groundbreaking show in recent years.

The abstract works mainly consist of color lumps and lines instead of concrete images. Many viewers may whisper and the most frequently used words are “I don’t understand”. Yang Shu, one of the artists whose masterpieces were displayed at the exhibition, said that those appreciating abstract art works should be curious; that was the most needed characteristic. Yang said: “they are curious, so they will have questions about what they cannot understand, accordingly they will search materials about artists, and then they will know about the artists and their works.” (Translated by Liu Hongyan, Fathom Language Limited)
