ASIA NOW – Paris Asian Art Fair is the first boutique art fair in France and Europe to bring a new perspective to contemporary Asian art and shine a light on all it has to offer to the international scene. ASIA NOW invites collectors and art lovers to a program of exhibitions and events, including specific curatorial projects and conversations, which aims to examine unknown areas of Asian art, paving the way for artists, critics and galleries who stand for and promote the whole continent’s artistic diversity. Presenting and exploring artistic practices of 55 artists from 18 galleries, ASIA NOW – Paris Asian Art Fair works against current stereotypes and allows its audience to look afresh at contemporary Asian art.
As one of the most important promotors of contemporary art in China, A Thousand Plateaus Art Space will present on the occasion of Asia Now the diversity and complexity of Chinese contemporary art. The selected artists keep the subtle sensitivity of Chinese society and culture. Their poetic or critical insights into the world make them veritable pioneers in their fields of creation. Among them, WANG Chuan and YANG Shu have each made significant contributions to the language of abstract paintings in China through their own special way. For example, WANG uses an especial way-ink on paper as the medium of creation while YANG Shu immerses some graffiti elements into his expressionist works. CHEN Qiulin and LI Lang pay attention to the impact of China's increasing urbanization on the population and the environment. CHEN creates these themes blended with her personal experiences and memories. when the latter, LI, is a calm observer who focuses on the Chinese ethnic minorities neglected by the rapid modernization process in China via his photography series “The Yi People” Finally Zhai Liang’s work discuss about the way in which philosophy thoughts get involved in painting exploration, and present the in-depth appearance and fascinating thoughts step by step.
