The exhibition “Pure Views Remote From Streams And Mountains - Transformation of Chinese Contemporary,” part of the Pure Views series (previously exhibited in London, San Francisco, Fukuoka, and Chengdu), was presented in mid-2013 at the Arts Santa Monica in Barcelona, Spain. The purpose of this exhibition is to showcase the most intriguing developments in contemporary China. Therefore, in selecting works for the exhibition, I chose, on the one hand, pieces from young artists and, on the other hand, works from mature artists who have been actively engaged on the international stage and widely recognized. Their commonality lies in the interpretation of China's cultural traditions through painting, reexamining the relationship between the essence of Chinese culture and contemporary art today.
