Description
Liu Xiaochun's critique, published on "Art Currents," issue 1, 1995, of the group show "Sculpture 1994" featured five sculptors. Zhan Wang was one of them. The authors discussed Zhan Wang's work " Temptation," made of clothes, linen and glue, and examined the aesthetics and philosophical thought contained within. The author considers this show as the result of the destruction and reconstruction of classical sculpture, which is then combined with Avant-Garde sculpture. In Zhan Wang’s case, the contorted garments embodies his classical sculpture education but the language he used, the message to convey, is reconstructed into Avant-Garde sculpture.
