Collage to Win
Fernisering 7. november kl 19:00 Udstillingsperiode 7. – 29. november Gratis adgang – alle er velkomne
Engang var det hele sort/hvidt – nu er det fuld af farver🎨
Engang var det hele i ét stykke – nu er alt klippet op ✂️ – han kalder dem collager.
Dette er den korte beskrivelse af Yufan Wangs kunstneriske udvikling og af hans kunstneriske proces i det hele taget. På et tidspunkt beslutter Wang ikke at producere nye kunstværker, men i stedet at genbruge eller ”upcycle” dem, han allerede har lavet. Dette kreative benspænd har taget hans kunst i nye retninger – aktuelt i form af farverige collager med et meget malerisk udtryk.
Titlen Collage to Win er inspirereret af en kinesisk pop-sang med titlen ”Fight to Win” som Wang plejede at lytte til som ung. Nu, mange år senere, opdager han, at på kinesisk har titlen en dobbelt mening - at den også kan læses som ”Collage to Win”. ”Et lykkeligt tilfælde, som også er præcis, hvad jeg leder efter i mit arbejde med collagerne”, siger Wang.
Kom til åbningen, hvor du kan møde kunstneren og hans kunst, købe en øl og få en sludder med både nye og gamle venner. Og vi skal selvfølgelig også høre den dér pop-sang😊🎵

It used to be black and white – now it’s all full of colors🎨
It used to be all in one piece, now it’s all cut up ✂️ – and he calls them collages.
This is the shorter way to describe both the present work and the creative process of Chinese artist Yufan Wang. At some point he decided to stop producing new art works, instead he would upcycle what had already created. This creative challenge took his art in new directions – so far to the point of colorful collages with a beautiful painterly texture. The title Collage to Win is inspired by a Chinese pop song, which Wang used to listen to when he was young - “Fight to Win” it is called. Now, many years later, he realizes that in Chinese the title has a double meaning, meaning also Collage to Win. “A perfect coincidence, he says, since this is exactly what I am looking for in my collage work”.
Come see the art works, meet the artist, buy a beer and talk to old and new friends. Everybody is welcome – and of cause, we’re going to check out the aforementioned Chinese pop-song 🎵😊
