The Human Soul
By Meng Yan (Shanghai) and Dominic Rouse (UK)
September 2 - 30, 2009



Meng Yan, one of the most unconventional Chinese painters of the 21st Century, uses his paint brushes and oil techniques to demonstrate his concepts of ‘The Human Soul’. This collection is a continuation of his last series of works, ‘Desires’, in which he concentrates on the beautiful side of human beings. To create unexpected visual effects and to elevate his selected theme to a new level, Meng Yan uses his own unique, original and truly remarkable painting techniques to project beauty as mystical but desirable. ‘The Human Soul’ by Meng Yan consists of 10 oil paintings.

For most photographers, cameras are used to record the world around them, but Dominic Rouse uses a camera to create a world. Starting at the age of 16 as a photojournalist, he gravitated towards commercial photography. Dominic eventually became known as a contemporary digital photographer in England, further evolving into the realm of fine art by using a combination of traditional and digital processes. His approach to photography consists of creating monochrome compositions that deconstruct and then reconstruct the human form, posing many questions along the way. Some art lovers view his prints as controversial; others deny that his prints are photography and elevate them to works of art. However, most observers of Dominic’s work agree that the 12 original black and white prints depict the world as uniquely seen by the artist’s mind.
