On June 20, 2009, Wang Liwei’s personal oil painting exhibition titled with Legend of Jianghu will be opened in Guanyintang Wenhua St. Beijing Arts Academy and a good many personages in artistic circle will be invited to present..Wang Liwei's works, succinct in picture, is an artist who came from the northwest of China. His works bring us a smell of simplicity and alternative angle of life all of sudden. The warm gray tone and fierce figures in his work, which is also the smell of west China, reminds me of a Chinese western movie The Swordsmen in Double-flag Town. In this movie, we feel uneasy off and on. To be specified, it is oppressed feeling when the robbers are coming which impresses viewer by inhabitant’s expression. Eventually, the disadvantaged youngster swordsmen beat the robbers with the courage from the crippled father. It is the father that we appreciate the true heroism. As a saying is as you sow, so will you reap, Wang Liwei, from his childhood, was profoundly influenced by heroism. Heroes’ image in childhood picture-story books become enthusiasm constantly springing up in his heart after his grown up. Those image representing heroism, errantry spirit in Chinese traditional culture and carrying his childhood memories, boyish wishes, dreams of grown up, is not merely one or several heroes, but also a condensation of errantry hero image in the artist’s heart perpetually. The process of creation is also a recollection of his childhood life. He himself sometimes becomes a figure in the painting. I think they can also be empathized by many views, which bring us to childhood and heroism era ceased long before.The exhibition will close in July 20.
