Winter Romance – Joint Exhibition by LIU Qi and PAN Wenxun

Description

Description

Ora-Ora is pleased to present Winter Romance, a double exhibition by contemporary artists Liu Qi and Pan Wenxun. The exhibition, on view from 21 January to 6 March, kick starts the gallery’s programming for the New Year presenting positivity and passion with Romanticism.

The Romantic movement also known as the Romantic Style and Romanticism, is a literary period spanning roughly from 1790–1850 and characterized by a celebration of nature and the common man, a focus on individual experience, an idealization of women, and an embrace of isolation and melancholy. This period dominated Western literature and arts in the late 18th century, and highlighted the link between art and romance. Philosopher and historian Isaiah Berlin discussed the roots of Romanticism in a speech he drafted, saying: “I think we can be absolutely certain that the Romantic movement was not only a movement about art, but it was the first movement in Western history in which art dominated the rest of life, in which art was the ruler of everything. In a sense, this is the essence of the Romantic movement.”
