“人生若萍”郝萍个展 | “Zen Life” Hao Ping Solo Exhibition

“Zen Life” Hao Ping Solo Exhibition

Date: 3 November – 5 December, 2019

Four years later, emerging artist Hao Ping brings her second solo exhibition Zen Life to Shanghai audience. Influenced by ancient Chinese Taoism and Buddhism, Hao Ping’s artworks are full of oriental Zen inspiration – free and natural, abstract and simple, lyrical and poetic.

This exhibition covers lady portraits, still live and scenery. The artist uses abstract lines and overstated features to represent the ancient beauties on the canvas. Hao Ping’s artworks express her interpretation of oriental art through oil instead of ink as well as the merge of Taoism and Buddhism in Chinese culture. She believes the harmony of human’s co-existence with nature, with different cultures and religions is the key of Chinese traditional philosophy and wisdom to live a peaceful life over thousands of years.

Therefore, Hao Ping attempts to share this concept and wisdom with the world through this exhibition, wishing to find some ideas and solutions to resolve the conflicts between different cultures, religions and interests around the world nowadays.

“人生若萍”郝萍个展

展期 : 2019年11月3日–12月5日

时隔4年, 青年艺术家郝萍再次为上海的观众带来其最新个展—— “人生若萍”。深受中国古代道教与佛教哲学思想的影响，郝萍的作品充满着东方的禅意与诗意，空灵与静谧，自由与融合以及素朴与真实，体现了“天人合一”的东方人文哲学和审美观。

郝萍的作品，无论是人物或景，总是充满着具象与抽象。其淡雅惬意的色调，随意灵动的线条以及洒脱自然的晕染与留白使作品显得飘逸而富有意境。作品中所体现出的那份坦然与豁达，不同宗教文化间的碰撞与融合，以及人类与自然的高度和谐共存更传达了中国几千年文明中所蕴含的理性包容，和而不同，和谐共处的传统理念与生存智慧。

艺术家希望通过这次的展览，将这一中国理念与智慧传达于天下，或用以修身治国，或给如何解决当今世界中不同国家和地区以及宗教文化间的冲突与利益相争等一系列问题带来些许的启发。
