ARTIST BIO
(b. 1956, CHINA)
According to the view of the Romantics, art is nothing less than the infinite, descended and reborn in finite form. Viewed in this light, Yu Nancheng’s works can be seen as just such a coming together of the finite with the infinite. The crowds of practitioners in Yu Nancheng’s works are arrayed in immaculate rows – expressions of a perfect order meant to transcend mankind's primal fear of entropy and disintegration. However, the real difficulty lies in the question of how to best awaken the latent capacity for imagination and ideas that human beings possess, and in doing so provide the human spirit with a sense of history and a faculty for reason that will free us from the gnaw of that nameless fear.
