Main Gallery, 21 - 31 Old Bailey Street, Central, Hong Kong

Schoeni Art Gallery is delighted to announce that previously unseen works by our artist Zhang Lin Hai are now being brought back to Hong Kong especially for this special exhibition that will give our patrons the opportunity to see his latest pieces. These pieces are returning from our latest international programme that was held, in joint vision, with the distinguished MKM Museum Küppersmühle, Germany last July 2005, where the gallery's exclusive artists Zhang Lin Hai and Wang Yi Dong were invited to artistically support their contemporaneous leader in Chinese Contemporary Art, Cai Guo Qiang. Physically crippled, but artistically liberated, Zhang Lin Hai's work voices the ardent zeal of his expressive force with stark contrast, austere imagery, and technical finesse.

Leaning boldly into a differing motif inspired by a nostalgic recollection of his childhood in Hebei Province, Zhang Lin Hai explores the literal and metaphorical landscape of memory. In keeping with his locally specific motifs, his home province, She County, retains a congruity with its wistfully remembered history in the uniform sense of youth that is depicted through repetitive imagery, suggesting a sense of continuity between then, and now. Zhang Lin Hai's greatest achievement emerges by fusing a human notion of claustrophobia with a transcendental spatial dimension, whereby a friction of our sensual understanding to the processes of memory is artistically heightened. His paintings have been collected by art lovers from all over the world. Schoeni Art Gallery Ltd. is pleased to invite you to this opportunity to view works by this esteemed artist and see for yourself why Zhang Lin Hai has been the focus of international media attention. Many of the works by Zhang Lin Hai, which he has been working on for the past 2 years, are being exhibited for the first time in Hong Kong, and dynamically reveal an understanding to his definitive success in the Post-Modernism field.
