Tang Yongxiang was born in Hubei Province and lives in Beijing. His emotive, “unfinished” paintings stand out in the Chinese art market where most works are either highly representational or abstract and intricate.
“His work can be called abstract in that it is not directly representational… His paintings conjure the perception of reality—for instance a profile, movements or a single object… At its most successful, Tang’s work is able to evoke the way vision itself is already abstract and ephemeral, often lacking a focal point. One takes his recent output to be as much about what he has dropped as about what is retained in these paintings through a process of selection and the embrace of absence.” – Iona Whittaker
