Zhao Zhao’s latest solo exhibition Zhao Zhao at the Tang Contemporary Art Beijing 1st Space brings together several clues of his creation in recent years and its further extension on this basis, involving the artist’s discussion of the artist’s concern for the individual and society, as well as his personal expression and thought of reality.Whether it is "Spread" with burnt cotton as the main body, or "Chinese Ladder" made of marble, or "statue of a Buddha" with abstract and symbolic juxtaposition... Like his previous works, these new works remain the same it is a mixture of multiple information including time and space, culture, history, individual experience, etc. They seem to be broad and complex, but they are a vivid portrayal of the current era.

Following the solo exhibition "Sixteen Cycles" in 2018, Du Jie's latest solo exhibition "No Place for Subjectivity to Stand" was held in Gingko Space. The same is to draw hundreds of thousands of lines in a monochrome picture. In the new works exhibited by the artist this time, the changes in the shades of the lines are more abundant, which seems to reflect a certain mentality change,  the creators use a more  relaxable method stimulates the inner tension of the picture.The swirling lines are endless, and are drawn by the artist in a penetrating stroke and end to end. The composition of these lines has no rules to follow. From the moment of inception, the lines spread and grow freely in a way that the pen moves freely. It vaguely connects with the subtle ups and downs of the current mood of the painter, and also presents a kind of Formal self-discipline in aesthetic style.

For a long time, Zhu Yingying's creation has focused on the study of the relationship between photography and painting. She usually use the collected image materials as the starting point of her work, through a series of transformations to explore the relationship between concrete and abstract, image representation and morphological entities, thereby revealing the inherent nature and laws of things.The artist's third solo exhibition "Rabbit Hole" in Hunsand Space is composed of five groups of paintings. Different from the wood-based oil painting used before, the new work is transformed into an oil painting on canvas based on media materials, and emphasizes the magnification and gaze of microscopic parts. In this way, the narrative factors in the picture are effectively eliminated, and the juxtaposition of the image fragments highlights the existence of a certain poetry and ontology.
