Winner ABN AMRO Art Prize exhibits in Amsterdam Hermitage from 3 September
Πέμπτη, 03 Σεπτεμβρίου 2020 17:19ABN AMRO Art Prize winner Evelyn Taocheng Wang’s exhibition in the Amsterdam Hermitage is opening on Thursday 3 September
The title of her exhibition – Het bloemblaadje, dat tijdens het ochtendkrieken was gevallen, paktte ik op in de avondschemering – has a purposefully included typo and is a quote she translated from a book by Chinese writer Lu Xun (1881-1936) about his childhood home, a source of memories to him.
Evelyn Wang’s exhibition shows how language and architecture are interwoven with one’s identity. She acquired Dutch citizenship in 2019, which is why her ‘new’ identity and Dutch culture are important themes in the exhibition.
