Two Girls, 48 in. x 36 in., oil/acrylic/canvas, 2006 (Nicholas Robinson Gallery) |
Artist “Wei Dong explores through painting the space where heritage and modernity coexist. His works set up a dialogue, present a confrontation and explode a good number of conventions. In a disruption of tradition Wei Dong has taken this male dominated domain and subjected it to domination by women.”
