About Cui Xinming 崔新明
A recent graduate from the Sichuan Academy of Fine Arts, Cui Xinming (b. 1986, lives in Chongqing) is a rising Chinese artist who creates expansive oil on canvas works that express, in an elaborate and vivid painterly style, the tumultuous thoughts and reflections of a younger Chinese generation that is living through a period of constant change. From Xinming’s early series ‘Black Hole of Memories’ to his most recent body of work ‘A Sleepwalker’s World’ and ‘Journey to the East’, Xinming addresses, in an evolving painterly style, how his peers and compatriots are casting into oblivion the past and its rich memories as an attempt to relentlessly attain a new stage of modernity.
