The Hive Center for Contemporary Art in Shenzhen has held the opening ceremony for its first exhibition of the year 2018 Watching the Clouds Go By: Liang Quan ‘s Creative Style and it’s Changes on March 10th 2018. This is the fifth solo exhibition of the artist Liang Quan in Hive Center, which will present to the audiences the artworks created in different periods of the artist’s career with various topics. The works exhibited are organized according to timeline, aiming to show the whole process of the development of Liang’s aesthetics through comparisons between various artistic styles, themes and creating technics.

Born in the 1940s, Liang Quan has gone through the “Cultural Revolution”  during his adolescent years and has been one of the first students who studied abroad and stepped into the field of post-expressionism. His historically featured personal experience has brought to his artworks both the visual elements from oriental and western culture, as we can always see the Chinese philosophy and cultural characters hidden behind the  form of western abstractionism, creating in this way an unique artistic language that distinguishes itself from the two cultures but perfectly mixes both of them.
