ARTIST SPOTLIGHT: HAO LIANG
Hao Liang Poetics of Li Shangyin II, 2021 Ink and color on silk 14 5/8 × 20 1/2 inches (37.1 x 51.9 cm) Framed: 21 1/8 x 28 1/4 x 1 1/8 inches (53.5 x 71.9 x 2.8 cm) $180,000 “When grief comes, you cast iron nets, hoping to catch coral, seas vast, heaven wide open—that’s where you lose your way.” These poignant lines, from a poem by Li Shangyin, form part of the chanced-upon inspiration for Hao Liang’s Poetics of Li Shangyin II. Rendered in ink and color on silk, Hao’s delicate work pictures a constellation of golden yellow cell-like stars, a few of which descend into a tranquil lake of muted blues and purples, representing fugitive emotions in a somber physical space that seems to resonate with the “wind-rinsed radiance” the verse describes.

Gagosian’s Artist Spotlight to Feature Hao Liang
Gagosian’s Artist Spotlight to Feature Hao Liang New Painting Will Be Revealed on December 10 and Available Exclusively Online for 48 Hours
NEW YORK, December 2, 2021—Gagosian’s Artist Spotlight—an online series that focuses on an individual artist for one week each month—is pleased to present a new painting by Hao Liang. The featured work will be revealed at gagosian.com on December 10 and available exclusively online for forty-eight hours. In his intricately painted silk portraits and landscapes, Hao filters the techniques, themes, motifs, and conventions of traditional Chinese guohua ink wash painting through a contemporary sensibility. Much of his work is concerned with perspectives on temporality, a concept that has historically been approached quite differently by Chinese and Western artists. He positions image making as not only an exercise in technical skill and art historical knowledge, but also a reflection of lived experience. Artist Spotlight: Hao Liang features a new ink and color on silk painting inspired by a poem by Li Shangyin (c. 813–858) titled “Swallow Terrace: Spring.” This delicate work is one of three by Hao to be prompted by Li’s writings and represents fugitive emotions in a somber physical space that resonates with the verse. On December 8, a new video featuring an interview with Hao will debut on Gagosian Quarterly online. Filmed in his Beijing studio, Hao discusses this new body of work and his approach to interpreting Li’s poetry. This Spotlight presentation precedes a solo exhibition by Hao at Gagosian London in 2023, in which all three works will be included. Hao’s work will also be included in an exhibition opening in January 2022 at the new He Art Museum in Foshan, China, whose building was designed by Tadao Ando. Artist Spotlight is a dynamic platform that enables artists to present their work in the digital realm, sharing their stories with a global audience online. The series, which launched in April 2020 and is now in its third season, is presented once a month as a regular part of Gagosian’s programming. Each installment highlights the work of an individual artist through new editorial features and archival content, and new work is made available with pricing information for forty-eight hours only. _____ Hao Liang in his studio, Beijing, 2019.
