About Zhuang Hong Yi

Zhuang Hong Yi (born 1962 in Sichuan, China) is an artist whose practice connects Chinese cultural references with experience in Europe. He studied at the Sichuan Fine Arts Institute before moving to the Netherlands in 1992 and continuing at Minerva in Groningen. Flowers, intense colour and the repeated arrangement of small forms are central to much of his work. His artist biography describes a process in which planning, gesture and subsequent adjustment work together. Nature and the Dutch landscape, including tulip fields, provide points of reference. The compositions invite attention both to the overall colour field and to the many elements from which it is built. This dialogue between detail and whole reflects an approach shaped by more than one cultural environment. His work has been exhibited at institutions including the Groninger Museum, the Found Museum in Beijing and Museum Ulm. His website documents the development of his practice and its international exhibition history.
