Theme of White Rabbit Gallery: Contemporary Chinese art produced after 2000.
History of White Rabbit Gallery:
In late 1990s,the origins of the Collection came when Judith Neilson engaged Wang Zhiyuan who is a Chinese artist then living in Sydney, as her art tutor. He introduced her to the astonishing explosion of creativity taking place in China in the wake of the “Opening Up” that had begun in 1989. Mrs Neilson began buying works, but soon ran out of space to hang them. She and her husband then decided to open a gallery that would make the exciting world of contemporary Chinese art available to all Australians. The other hand, only a fraction of the Collection is on show at any time. And the entire contents of the gallery are rehung twice a year.
Your favourite piece of art and why?
my favorite piece of art is Han jinpeng
His art is quiet amazing to me he use a film to look like a picture which is Mona Lisa
He acted Mona lisa and then few minute later it has totally changed. His recording represent the whole part of painting of mona lisa is changed and washed out. It looks funny but I thought it has a different meaning. He just analysed the masterpiece in a different way that make me think the art is not always the same. It is a progressive and has developed, changed by many art lovers.
Your least favourite piece of art and why?
my least favourite piece of art is by chen-chunmu.
When I watch his art I felt it makes me think image of female in every his painting looks a traditional artwork of china. mostly I found the birds painting is looks like a human but it is a female. I feel uncomfortable that he paints and describes the female as a monster and mysterious universality of mythical beings like mermaids or minotaurs.
Benefit from the white rabbit gallery
When I was in the gallery, I found the atmosphere of the china. From the entrance I saw teahouse and some souvenir shop it is full with feeling of china. And I surprised by the full of the Chinese arts that we can find it in Australia Sydney.
And many interesting pictures are that makes impression about issues with Chinese government.
Some people believe that they should visit the art gallery, which is famous and well-known place only.
However, white rabbit gallery is the most interesting art gallery to me.
I prefer to stay the place where is quiet and tidy, which is not crowded with many people.
In this reason I enjoyed the white rabbit gallery the most.
This gallery has an impressive Chinese painting.
In addition to these, it also has paintings and statues by famous.
This makes it an interesting gallery. There you will find glorious works by the best-known artists of china.
Even the building itself is totally impressive, with all the bottle and something is outside of lift.
These can be of great learning value in understanding the culture of the china.
In my opinion, art is a beautiful part of our history so visiting an art gallery is a journey back through time and into the creative master minds that help shape our culture.
