On February 6, 2018, the "The Reunion of Poetry and Philosophy: Zhang Xiaogang & Wang Guangyi" opened at the Prague City Gallery, Czech Republic, and ran until May 13th. Zhang Xiaogang and Wang Guangyi, as two important contemporary artists in the history of Chinese art, epitomize two distinct spiritual paths in contemporary Chinese art. The societal transformations have triggered profound reflections among artists about themselves and the future. After experiencing isolation, collision, rebellion, and contemplation, Zhang Xiaogang and Wang Guangyi embarked on completely divergent paths—one toward poetry, the other toward philosophy.
