China is an old country with an ancient civilization. Today, China is undergoing a renaissance and is bursting with vitality, asserting itself through its potential for talented artists.
For many years, art in China has been a space where ancestral Chinese traditions and imported cultural practices blend together and are transcribed into magnificent canvases.
Painters, photographers, artists, the face of the contemporary Chinese artist stands out for his originality and his love for his country which is reflected in each canvas.
Several pioneers in the art world are promoting China through their works and establishing themselves in the finest galleries around the world. Many have conquered the contemporary Chinese art market from London to New York to Paris.
This enthusiasm for contemporary Chinese art is part of a very strong movement of the rise of China with a list of artists who continue to grow year after year, making China shine.
Zeng FANZHI is one of them, Chinese painter Born in 1964 in Wuhan, he is part of the generation of Chinese artists newly propelled onto the international contemporary art scene.

Chinese painter Wang Guangyi is also a highly regarded artist. Born in 1957 in Harbi, he graduated from the renowned Zhejiang Academy of Fine Arts in 1984.
Wang GUANGYI grew up in an environment saturated with propaganda images praising the Maoist regime, which strongly inspired his creations.
Its particularity is that it has the art of mixing images borrowed from the propaganda of the cultural revolution with the aesthetics of American Pop Art and uses in his works motifs created by rebel or revolutionary groups during the era of the Cultural Revolution appearing on posters or brochures which make it his great signature.
Many Chinese artists have become millionaires through the promotion of their talent and their overflowing creativity.
They remain the showcases of luxury for the Chinese contemporary art market and today occupy the podiums of the greatest international galleries.
These Chinese stars, who are the renown of China, seduce with their works, their originality and the quality of their work where the "made in China" label is honored and remains a source of national pride.
Thus, each contemporary art exhibition reinvents art by re-examining the question of art and its limits, because it is considered that an art as cultural as painting can act powerfully on minds, which leads to a real revolution in Chinese contemporary art which attracts all the attention by making the prices of paintings soar, to the great pleasure of art collectors.
The exhibition is a place for works that has become a space for the transformation of traditional categories in the artistic field.
