春风-刘香成

Spring Breeze-Liu Heungshing Exhibition
As the first exhibition to return to the 798 Art District, Star Space will hold Liu Xiangcheng's solo exhibition "Spring Breeze" at Beijing Gallery Week 2019.
Pulitzer Prize-winning and documentary photographer Liu Xiangcheng used his iconic works to tell of two extremely important historical moments of the 20th century: the rise of China and the disintegration of the Soviet Union. As a photographer, Liu Xiangcheng's creative philosophy lies in exploring, clarifying, and revealing the complexity, flaws, and fragility of grand narratives, as well as the unreasonable words and differences in appearance. From China to Russia, he used daily life as the touchstone of the times, and used photography to show the impact of ideology on civilians and social features.
In 1983, Liu Xiangcheng's photography collection "China After Mao" was launched by Penguin Books, which caused a strong response. Newsweek hailed him as "Bresson in China". All of the works in the "Spring Breeze" exhibition are selected from this landmark publication, and pay more attention to the ordinary events of ordinary people he photographed.
春风——刘香成个展
作为回归798艺术区的首展,星空间将于2019北京画廊周举办刘香成个展“春风”。
普利策奖得主、纪实摄影家刘香成以他具有标志性的作品讲述了20世纪两个极为重大的历史时刻:中国崛起与苏联解体。作为摄影家,刘香成的创作理念在于探索、澄清和揭示出宏大叙事的复杂性、缺陷和脆弱,以及词不达意、表里不一。从中国到俄罗斯,他将日常生活作为时代的试金石,用摄影来呈现意识形态对平民百姓和社会风貌的影响。
1983年,刘香成摄影集《毛以后的中国》经企鹅出版(Penguin Books)推出后引发了强烈反响,《新闻周刊》(Newsweek)将他誉为“中国的布列松”。“春风”一展的全部作品均选自这部具有里程碑意义的出版物,并更加注重呈现他所拍摄的普通人的平常事件。
