Galerie3 from Vienna will present charcoal drawings from Juewen Zhang’s Scheitel (hair parting) series at Booth E07 as part of its participation in Art Düsseldorf.
With a keen sensitivity to the materiality of charcoal, Juewen Zhang creates works that not only depict reality but also reveal the medium and artistic process in their full complexity. He works from positive to negative by first covering large sheets of paper in charcoal, then meticulously erasing each individual hair, building up to an intense and vibrant image. In doing so, Zhang crafts deeply intimate yet anonymous portraits of the people around him.
