  • Sobre la obra de arte

    'Laborer series-Worker No. 2(2011 - 2021)
    This is what artist Zhang tells about his sculpture:

    'This is a group of sculptures about the memories of my childhood life. It is a combination of metal sculptures and old objects, full of the breath of life.

    I was born in an ordinary rural family in northern China. My ancestors have lived a life facing the loess and back to the sky for generations. Hard work has maintained a poor and simple life. When I was young, I followed the adults to work in the fields, which is the deepest memory of my childhood. . Walking on the natural land, you can smell the mud and hear the sounds of nature. Parents say you have to study hard, take university entrance exams in the future, and leave here; when I arrived in elementary school, the teacher said that knowledge changes destiny, and you have to make progress every day and leave here! Slowly, books became my object of labor.

    One day, when I went to university, I studied more and more textbooks, which seemed to make sense, but I couldn't understand it more and more. After graduating, I came to Beijing, engaged in artistic creation, and was as busy as the people here. What is the result of spiritual labor and material? People all need jobs, why? Is work destiny? Where is fate taking us? I don't know, but I am sure that we can no longer stop, and we can't go back to the past!'

    The last of this edition 8/8 is available at Galerie Kunstbroeders. This is the only sculpture which could land in Europe. Al others in this series of 8 are sold in China.
  • Sobre el artista

    “El romanticismo no se sitúa precisamente en la elección del tema, ni en la verdad exacta, sino en la forma de sentir”. – Charles Baudelaire

    La cita del poeta francés Charles Baudelaire resume a la perfección el carácter de Zhang Ruo Yu y su actitud hacia sus creaciones. Zhang se propone buscar un hilo, un tema, un estilo, en el terreno de los mitos y las leyendas, algo que dé rienda suelta a un sentido romántico. De ese hilo teje obras íntimas de bronce que capturan sutiles profundidades de emociones y un sentido de aspiración hacia el infinito.

    Zhang tiene un sentido del humor irónico, como lo atestiguan sus series Stray Dogs. Sin embargo, siempre hay una consideración y una sutil melancolía en las creaciones de Zhang y un reconocimiento de que en el corazón de todo romanticismo está el sufrimiento.
