Silent Poetry: French Art Exhibition at Art of Nature Contemporary


  • Hong Kong Hong Kong (map)

The artist evokes the viewers' visual experience and emotions through colours and their relationships. The rhythmic interplay of colours becomes a dynamic silent poetry, intensely captivating the viewers' souls. This exhibition, featuring the works of Cang Yuan, who resides in France, French artist Marc Tanguy and Jean‒Baptiste Née depict both outward and inward poetic expressions.

Marc Tanguy focuses on portraying the poetic essence of nature. He skillfully imbues his depicted landscapes with romanticism, rendering them mysterious, splendid, and liberated from fixed forms. The result is a near-abstract representation, giving birth to fantastical scenery. On the other hand, Cang Yuan turns inward, seeking the poetry of memory and conscious existence. The undulating lines seem to freeze certain entanglements, representing the artist's introspective reevaluation of their own life. Jean‒Baptiste Née was immersed in the depiction of mountains, rain, and snow. The subjects he portrayed always exhibited a subtle poetic quality. Under his brush, mountain ranges and clouds take on a unique vitality, imbued with philosophical significance. Through their artwork, the artists write poems of life itself.
