About This Book

Taking on the thousand-year-old practice of Chinese scroll painting, Beijing-born artist Yun-Fei Ji employs ink on paper as his primary medium and landscape as his central subject. However, rather than adopting the idealism characteristic of traditional scroll painting, Ji's work presents the gritty reality of life in China today. Ji also emphasizes the critical relationship between the land and its people and how the balance is being challenged by current social, political, ecological and economic shifts.

Yun-Fei Ji: The Intimate Universe is the artist's largest solo exhibition to date in teh United States.
