Recognized throughout Asia and Europe for his bold experiments in new media, performance, and installation art, Beijing-based artist Wang Jianwei presents\u00a0Wang Jianwei: Time Temple, the first of three commissions of\u00a0The Robert H. N. Ho Family Foundation Chinese Art Initiative\u00a0at the Guggenheim Museum. The initiative, which launched in 2013, was established to advance the achievements of contemporary Chinese artists and expand the discourse on contemporary Chinese art by commissioning Chinese artists to create major works that will be exhibited in the museum and enter into its permanent collection.<\/p>\n
Wang Jianwei\u2019s work examines the contact between art and social reality. His highly innovative artworks consider space and time in elaborate ways: working from the notion that the production of artwork can be a continuous rehearsal, connecting theater, visual art, and film.\u00a0Wang Jianwei: Time Temple\u00a0is the artist\u2019s first solo exhibition in North America. This exhibition comprises installation, painting, film, and a live theater production.<\/p>\n
Each exhibition will be accompanied by a scholarly publication, notable lectures, and education programs. This exhibition is organized by Thomas J. Berghuis, The Robert H. N. Ho Family Foundation Curator of Chinese Art as part of the Guggenheim Museum\u2019s Asian Art Initiative.<\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":7753,"template":"","tags":[31],"exhibitions_type":[8],"class_list":["post-7747","exhibitions","type-exhibitions","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","tag-wangjianwei","exhibitions_type-museum-exhibitions"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.madeingallery.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/exhibitions\/7747","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.madeingallery.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/exhibitions"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.madeingallery.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/exhibitions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.madeingallery.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/7753"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.madeingallery.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=7747"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.madeingallery.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=7747"},{"taxonomy":"exhibitions_type","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.madeingallery.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/exhibitions_type?post=7747"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
