Mischmasch TV updates

Latest from Mischmasch TV:

LI Qian:



“Painting cannot prove my existence; I paint to cure my pain. It’s similar to watching a horror movie: as the movie ends, you realize the horror never exists. Or it’s like listening to sad music when you’re sad. It eases your sorrows.” — Li Qian

Li Qian is originally from Jilin, China and he currently resides in Beijing. To Li, painting opens the deepest wells of delight and terror in himself—it’s a means of investigation into his subconscious. His claustrophobic dreamscapes and grievous self-portraits are ardent, frank and stripped of sentimentality. His work articulates what many people live through subconsciously, and brings to the forefront the lies that we consciously tell everyday.

CUI Nan:



"Only when you have investigated yourself can you investigate the world. It's the combination of the two that makes your art interesting." — Cui Nan.

Cui Nan is originally from Hebei province in China, he now paints from his studio space in Song Zhuang, Beijing. He graduated from Hebei Normal University in 1999, where he later taught as a teacher. Cui Nan often features himself in his large-scale narratives. His paintings are ritualistic, imaginative, and charged with an energy that rebels and perplexes.

HUA Ge:



“Chinese artists should be more serious about their works. They should stop following the courses and trends of commercialism.” — HUA Ge.

Hua Ge is originally from Sichuan China. He graduated from the Sichuan Fine Arts Institute in 1991, major in Traditional Chinese Painting then from the People’s Liberation Army Fine Art Institute in 1997, major in Painting. Hua Ge’s work is a discourse on the inherited patterns of tradition and how they have mutated over time. His paintings are vivid and at times, glaringly graphic—they lure you into a hidden subconscious world. See more of Hua Ge's work here: www.mischmaschonline.com/artist_work.php?uid=10109
