Selection of Works of Art by Zhang Xiaotao
Zhang Xiaotao born 1970 in Hechuan, Chongqing, China, lives and works in Beijing and Chengdu, China. He is an artist Full of enthusiasm and good arguments. He is so repellent talkatively that no one could dive into the conversation may also be able to read their articles on paintings (see his article "The Paintings antibody —-, issued in the 4th edition of" contemporary art "2006), or recover at Bokee Internet that keeps the art of his thought, and to detect their activities and the idea of the logic of their language. That makes us think so deeply that make writers writing as a profession is embarrassed. He is very conservative, low tone and introspective.
Zhang Xiaotao appears to extend even the "feeling" of the 80, which means the web of individual psyche or emotion, but inside he felt desires. This desire is the direct projection and reflection of "reality" of an artist stuck doggedly to his art, and confesses that modernism could envisage the true life and reality itself. This is closely linked to the social crisis in modern Chinese history and is also facing a crucial in the history of China and one of the characteristics of time in China. It we call consciousness Zhang Xiaotao question for me is the reflection exerted on the historical evolution of modern art and an artist's sensitivity and reflection, expression and burning in the changing realities and conflicts. That is, his artistic activities tend to be specific targets of reality to the questions —- social time occurring during transformation of society and ass and change his feelings and be in the process .. This is the key to interpret the art of Zhang.
Zhang art is, in fact, constitute an individual word similar to the circumstances of the cultural reality of today, but also a critical ability. Or the end of his artistic activities are lit by their real existence circumstance or drained from it. This feature is both of their free choice to be a margin are roaming, and also of his rebellion against tradition and doubts about the reality and concerns. His work is not for a sample of aesthetic culture at the time, but a struggle between social forces for and against the social reality that is fighting hard, and this is the real charm of his art
Conclusions:
Zhang Xiaotao had already established his own style and the impact of the work had gained a strong reputation in Chinese art is for me circles.Zhang Xiaotao reflection exerted on the historical evolution of modern art and an artist's sensitivity and reflection, expression and burning in the changing realities and conflicts.
