Victor Wang’s painting has explored the emotional weights of memory, migration and identity. The vibrant, thickly applied paint and energetic, hyperactive brushwork found in Wang’s paintings are immediately engaging and fascinating to the viewers. His timeless female figures coax, taunt, and intrigue while a dense narrative of joy and pain unfolds in his brilliantly layered, narrative works. Utilizing elements of collage of Chinese figures from Tang dynasty on his canvases not only express the artist’s Chinese heritage but also create a multi-layered background for the depiction of the beauty of Western women. Victor Wang’s haunting and bold canvases have become the visual equivalent of “East Meets West.”
