[상하이] 끝없는 경계 

 

 

Hakgojae Shanghai is delighted to present Jin Meyerson's first solo exhibition in China on 22 March and runs until 27 April, 2014. Meyerson's work draws on the legacies of abstraction by reworking images gained from the media, including images from magazines, television and internet- which he distorts, recolors, stretches, shrinks, and translates into the language of painting. Born in Incheon, South Korea in 1972, adopted by a Jewish-Swedish family and grew up in rural Minnesota, Meyerson is an American artist currently based in Hong Kong after spending time working in New York, Paris, and Seoul. He received BFA from Minneapolis College of Art and Design in 1995, and his MFA from Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts in 1997. Recognized for his integral contributions to the revival of figurative painting, he has been included in landmark exhibitions from “The Triumph of Painting” at the Saatchi Gallery to “Hue&Cry” curated by Vladimir Roitfeld. He completed the works that are reinterpretations of his surroundings of his studio in Hong Kong, and in addition to that- crowd, nature and machines are distorted and covered with delicate colors. There will be around ten works to be displayed in Hakㅁgojae Shanghai, including his epic piece, Before the Invention of Death(2009-2010) and Leviathan(2010), as well as Broadacre(2013) and Sleep Walker(2013), the works that are recently finished in Hong Kong.
