Linda Gallery is pleased to announce the opening of 1800 square meters space in Beijing 798 Art District. The gallery is very honored to have invited well-known Chinese contemporary art curator, Zhu Qi, to plan and design its elaborate opening exhibition. The opening exhibition will showcase the works of 15 Chinese contemporary artists e.g Sui Jianguo, Zhan Wang, Wang Jianwei, Li Yongbin, Zhang Peng. The exhibition is a surrealistic form of creation, which will significantly enlighten your imagination, aesthetics, and spirit. The exhibition aims to integrate the characteristics of Form Language, installation art as well as the empirical features of today’s society. The theme “Hanging in Sky, Drifting on Surface”, breaks away from the traditional seeing artworks while standing on floor, which promises you to an “emotionally disturbing” experience.

“The Visual Experience of Chinese Contemporary art is comprehensive, which mainly involves the arts of social and political connotations. With gradual improvement of Chinese politics, the relationship between the contemporary art and the politics is also changing, given the contemporary art a tendency to be politicized, and further allowing a false personalization to express collective experience in its own name.” - Zhu Qi, Curator

新林大画廊开幕展：“悬在空中、浮于表面、不能靠近”

印尼著名的林大画廊（Linda Gallery）在北京798内新成立的1800平米的林大当代艺术中心，特别邀请了著名策展人朱其为开幕展进行了精心策划，这次大型联展集合了隋建国、展望, 汪建伟, 李永斌、张鹏等15位中国当代著名艺术家的最新作品，它是超越现实的形式创造，具有想象、美学以及精神的启蒙作用。本展览试图让一种形式语言、展示方式和现实社会的经验特征能达到一种同构，以“悬在空中、浮于表面、不能靠近”的空间形式，打破通常的地面观看的方式，预示着一种“心神不安”的现实经验。

“当代艺术的视觉经验是综合性的，主要是一种涉及社会和政治内涵的艺术。随着中国政治的逐渐改善，当代艺术和政治的关系也在改变，正在出现一种去政治化的趋向，以虚假的个人化表现一种个人名义的集体经验。” - 朱其, 策展人
