European Chamber “City Attractiveness” Practice on Abstract Art Appreciation Achieved Success Go back »

2023-04-13 | Shenyang

As another art practice under the “City Attractiveness” focusing group, European Chamber Shenyang Chapter and Shenyang Westin Hotel jointly organized GM Cocktail Party theming on Charm of Abstract Art on April 13^th. We invited Mr. Yichao Sun, a famous abstract artist from Shenyang, to share his understanding of abstract art and the expression he’d deliver during art creation.

Abstract art allows the viewer to decide what the artwork is about, on a very personal level. There is nothing to hold onto in terms of interpreting the painting, so you have to open up your intuition and see where the painting takes you.

If you want to fully appreciate an artwork, it's important to understand the artist's reasoning behind it. On the one hand, a large part of the beauty of art is that we, the viewers, can bring our own meaning and assign our own context to an artwork based on our memories, personalities and life experiences. On the other hand, knowing the artist's thought process for creating a certain work of art adds a further layer of meaning and value to each of our individual interpretations of a piece. The use of bold colours, intricate patterns, and symbolic imagery in Mr. Sun’s art creates a sense of balancing between movement and peace, real and fiction under shade and light, leading viewers to seek their inner peace through a switchover between macro and micro sensations.
