Soka Art Beijing is honored to introduce the new exhibition "Tang Zhiyi : River of Time" on 26th June. Tang has highly artistic sensitivity and he's very modest about his talents and achievements. He used lacquer as the medium of paintings, an extremely labor and time-consuming work, the layers of lacquer coalesce into a textured grace rendered by the repeated act of overlaying and washing This is Tang’s first solo exhibition in Soka Art Beijing, it includes Tang Zhiyi’s works from 2015 to up to now and we will exhibit Tang's three new series; Boom, Ashes of Time, Flowery Valued Ashes, which show his development and orientation in art.

“Standing in front of a work of art, what is the first thing you do? Do you look for the name of the artist and work on the exhibit label before attempting to make a connection between the text and image? Or, do you intuitively seek the visual and sensual stimulation provided by the artwork? Perhaps you try to recall some similar memory or knowledge deep within your mind.
