Wanxin Zhang: A Ten Year Survey provides an in-depth survey of San Francisco-based artist Wanxin Zhang.
Inspired by the soldiers of the Qin terra cotta army unearthed in Xian, China in 1974, Zhang’s large-scale terra cotta figures cross over from history into today’s culture. His works are marked at once by a collision of cultures; manner of dress, hair fashion and calligraphy are drawn from Chinese culture while American peculiarities are added as ironic twists.
