The Revolution Continues is one of the opening exhibitions at the unveiling of Saatchi Gallery’s new space in Chelsea, London. It presents outstanding Chinese contemporary artworks, including paintings, sculptures, installations, multi-media and performance arts, which Saatchi has collected in a short period of time.
Your Body is the only piece of art by Xiang Jing which the Saatchi Gallery has collected. The minimalist exhibition hall forms one of the best display conditions that the piece has ever seen. It helps underscore the untainted expressiveness of the piece. The wistful, critical, and melancholic sentiments appear transparent and direct, whereas the glistening, waxy surface of the human figure projects another layer of allure in the spacious and brightly-lit room. Your Body has now found its way to a Chinese collector.
Artists: Zhang Xiaogang, Zeng Fanzhi, Zheng Guogu, Li Songsong, Zhang Huan, Yue Minjun, Zhan Wang, Liu Wei, Xiang Jing, and others.
