Something Comes from Nothing

White Space presents Something Comes from Nothing, an exhibition of new paintings by Li Shurui – his fourth solo show with the gallery.
The exhibition takes inspiration from a verse by the Tang Dynasty poet Zhang Jiuling: 'Tall bamboos steeped in the serenity of morning light, the splendid pond cradles sky's mirrored blue.'
The title of the exhibition is adapted from the word bixu in the original poem, which literally translates to 'azure void,' and this is the philosophical core behind the show. In this new body of paintings, Li explores water as a 'divine presence,' and the pieces reflect life, energy, and the nature of reality.

Bauhaus Unknown is a solo exhibition featuring the latest body of work from the Chen Ke’s 'Bauhaus Gal' series (2020-ongoing). Since breaking onto the art scene in the early 2000s, Chen Ke, from Sichuan province, has gained recognition for the way her work explores the emotional complexities of the individual within broader social and historical contexts.
This exhibition focuses on the lives and often-overlooked contributions of the women associated with the Bauhaus – a German art school that was active from 1919 to 1933. In particular, it focuses on women’s role in the school’s weaving workshop and their lasting impact on textile art.
