Acquis directement auprès de l’artiste
Après avoir étudié à l’académie centrale des Beaux-Arts de Beijing, Yu Hong s’établit en tant qu’un des jeunes talents de la figuration contemporaine chinoise au début des années 1990 en 1991, à travers sa participation à l’exposition New Generation au Musée National d’Histoire Chinoise à Beijing. Elle a depuis participé à de nombreuses expositions collectives internationales, notamment au Guggenheim Museum, au Boston Museum of Fine Arts et au National Art Museum of China. Son œuvre est caractérisée par son exploration et sa recontextualisation du rôle social de la femme dans la Chine d’aujourd’hui, dans un style que l’on pourrait qualifier de « nouveau réaliste », combinant illusion et réalité, références au moderne et à l’antique. Cet aspect de l’œuvre de l’artiste est particulièrement prononcé dans la série She qui, dans ses représentations journalistiques de femmes chinoises, vise à engendrer une forme de récit social à travers l’entourage immédiat dans lequel elle place ses modèles. Bien que l’aspect sociologique soit moins prononcé dans Deux enfants acrobates, il illustre néanmoins une autre caractéristique importante de l’œuvre de Hong. Cette œuvre profondément intimiste, représentant deux jeunes filles pendant un cours de gymnastique, dénué de tout contexte, illustre la manière dont l’artiste se plaît à représenter toutes les étapes de la vie, qu’elles soient banales ou importantes.
After studying at the Central Academy of Fine Arts in Beijing, Yu Hong established herself as one of the young talents of Chinese contemporary figuration in the early 1990's through her participation in the New Generation exhibition at the National Museum of Chinese History in Beijing. She has since participated in numerous international group exhibitions, including the Guggenheim Museum, the Boston Museum of Fine Arts and the National Art Museum of China. Her work is characterised by her exploration and recontextualisation of the social role of women in China today, in a style that could be described as 'new realist', combining illusion and reality, references to the modern and the ancient. This aspect of the artist's work is particularly pronounced in the She series. In its journalistic representations of Chinese women, the series aims to generate a form of social narrative through the immediate environment in which it places its models. Although the sociological aspect is less pronounced in Two Acrobatic Children, it nevertheless illustrates another important feature of Hong's work. This deeply intimate work, depicting two young girls during a gymnastics class, devoid of any context, illustrates the way in which the artist enjoys depicting all the stages of life, whether they are banal or important.
