The Ludwig Museum Koblenz and Wei Gallery are pleased to announce that the artist Ping Tan will present a major exhibition, "Tan Ping: Body of Abstraction", from 1 December 2024 to 23 February 2025 at the Ludwig Museum Koblenz in Germany. The exhibition is a summation of Tan Ping's abstract art: his work is characterized by an abstract formal language in which he alternates between painterly and graphic gestures. His works were already on display at the Ludwig Museum in 2017 in the group exhibition “China – Transmission”. The current exhibition will be his first solo museum presentation in Germany.
" Tan Ping's sophisticated and sensuous art challenges the tired but powerful orthodoxy visible in certain kinds of art history and in many contemporary accounts of wider historical developments that we are destined to live a silo existence where 'our' cultures are only contaminated (rather than enriched) by those of others."
