The blueness in the paintings is of the colour of the sky, the air that one breaths, and the shade of eternal youth which one losses oneself in.<\/p>\n<p>Having graduated from Shanxi Normal University and Renmin University of China respectively with a bachelor and a masters degree, Li\u2019s works are filled with superior techniques and contemporary elements and have been exhibited extensively \u2013 in the US, France, Germany and Korea, just to mention a few. Her works are among the collection of major museums and galleries such as Today Art Museum, Shan Art Foundation and the White Rabbit Gallery.<\/p>\n<p>Li Tingting has had many important large scale exhibitions in the recent years, including \u201cTime: Li Tingting\u2019s New Works\u201d in Liu Haisu Art Museum, \u201cBoundless: Ongoing \u2013 Chinese Ink Art\u201d in Art Museum of Sichuan Fine Art Institute, \u201cControl+Shift+S III\u201d in Li Keran Academy of Painting and \u201cThe Tale of Six Cities\u201d in Shandong Art Museum.<\/p>\n<p>Professor Kuiyi Shen from the University of California San Diego who specialises in Asian Art History, Theory and Criticism states that Li Tingting\u2019s \u201cinterpretation of ink and its value is unique in her own way\u201d. One may see her mature techniques in the handling of ink as a medium in the works exhibited in her first solo exhibition in Taiwan.<\/p>\n<p>Professor Xia Kejun from the School of Liberal Arts in Renmin University of China who is also a renowned curator points out that despite the apparent traditional nature of Li Tingting\u2019s still-lifes, they do not exist in the traditional sense when the painter simply copies its forms. One does not study from the outside to the heart, nor from the top to the bottom when observing the world; but experience the surroundings face to face, as if these objects were within an arm\u2019s reach.<\/p>\n<p>Among Li Tingting\u2019s latest landscape paintings, some are produced as installations to bring the audience closer to the works. Li extends her ready-made paintings and combines new elements with the works, in the manner of a lady\u2019s toilette box that can be treasured.<\/p>\n<p>The artist takes the element \u201ctime\u201d into consideration when creating the works for the paintings included in the exhibition \u201cA Vista in Blue\u201d, and one may sense the artist\u2019s progressing concepts from still-lifes to landscapes. The landscapes on display can be seen as a large scale work with \u201ccontinuous composition\u201d, they are individuals that are closely connected, waving a sense of time and space onto paper.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA Vista in Blue\u201d will open to the public on Saturday 25<sup>th<\/sup> August 2018. Daguan Gallery sincerely invite you to join the artist Li Tingting, Professor Lin Chi-Ming from the Department of Arts and Design in National Taipei University of Education and<\/p>\n<p>Vanessa Kuo, Director of Daguan Gallery to a talk specially held for the opening of the exhibition, to discuss Li Tingting\u2019s blue world.<\/p>\n<div class=\"text_exposed_show\">\n<p>&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;-<br \/>\n\u300cA Vista in Blue \u2013 Li Tingting Solo Exhibition\u300d<\/p>\n<p>Exhibition Duration\uff5c2018.8.25- 9.23<\/p>\n<p>DaGuan Gallery<br \/>\nOpening Hours | 10:30-18:30 Tue.\u2013Sun.
