SINGAPORE.- Ode To Art Contemporary will be holding a solo exhibition for one of China’s top ten contemporary sculptors, Chen Wenling , at Art Stage 2012 from 12 – 15 January at the Marina Bay Sands Convention & Exhibition Center (booth D4-05). This exhibition showcases artworks from his two renowned series of sculptures: Red Memory and China Scene. Following a number of prestigious exhibitions, such as Art Basel in Switzerland and the Shanghai Biennale , Chen has been represented by Ode To Art for the last five years. The two main themes of Chen Wenling’s sculptures are the manifestations of extreme humanity and immaterial images. His self extreme condition begins from the series of “Red Boy” (Red Memory). It is neither realism nor vanguard sculpture, but the self expression of Chen Wenling himself to the critical state of life. For example, dread, gladness, game and fancy are the basic main motivations of his sculptures. This series of “Red Boy” (Red Memory) conveys his experience in an autobiographic form.
