aura gallery beijing is pleased to present Luo Quanmu - Butterfly Catching, June 14- July14, 2008.

 

Luo Quanmu’s works depict the ambiguous status of something about to set out or about to end. He has found the myth in things and in emotions that can't be represented no matter how they are described or implied. In his latest "Butterfly Catcher"(2007), "The Logger"(2007), and "Rock Collector”(2008), Luo gradually changed the excessive details. The saturated backdrops attempt to fill up the waning past; the artist created a place and a story in an ideal world through mingled textures, entangled prospects and a certainty in the unfolding space, light and colors.

 

Luo Quanmu was born in Jiangsu in 1965, now lives and works in Nanjing. His works have been shown in Melbourne, New York, Singapore, Seoul and other international group exhibitions. Important solo exhibitions include New Graphic, 2001, aura gallery shanghai, Luo Quanmu 2000- 2007 , 2007, aura gallery shanghai. Luo Quanmu - Butterfly Catching is his first solo in Beijing.

 

亦安画廊北京于6月14 - 7月14日展出 罗荃木- 采蝶人。

 

罗荃木的作品发现了普世所固定下来的东西的之间或之后，某些事物和情绪被指涉、被暗含，却也不能说清的神秘。在新作采蝶人（2007）、伐木人（2007）、采石（2008）中，罗荃木积垒的细节渐渐改变，满溢的背景企图将犹有空缺的过往性填满，肌里经营视觉交缠，拉开空间的确定感，光线、色彩创造理想世界的地方感和故事性；这些似写生而来的景物其实来自艺术家记忆的拼凑，是从心中理想的历史得到具体意像，并转变为充满情绪流露的所在。

 

罗荃木1965年生于江苏南通，现工作生活于南京。曾参加墨尔本、新加坡、纽约之群展，重要个展有2001年New Graphic、2007年罗荃木2000 - 2007于上海亦安画廊，此次罗荃木- 采蝶人是罗荃木在北京首次个展。
