Tang Contemporary Art is honored to announce the representation of artist Xu Jiang within the Asian region. The artist’s first solo exhibition with the gallery, titled “One Hill, One Valley”, will open on July 27 at the Hong Kong Central Space. As Xin Qiji says, “even one hill and one valley can be a charm.” The exhibition shows 30 of Xu’s latest works revolving around landscapes, conveying the artist’s travelling horizons, and spiritual endeavors towards traditional Chinese landscapes.

“One Hill, One Valley” is the title that Xu Jiang gave for the exhibition, which comes from a famous poem by Song poet and painter Huang Tingjian, “one hill, one valley, can drag the tail.” In ancient Chinese language, “dragging the tail” connotes the life of secluded literati, who enjoy happiness from staying pure and noble. The landscapes in Xu’s painting – the hills and the valleys – are hence naturally also pleasures of seclusion.
