Huang Rui is one of China’s most highly regarded artists and in 1979 was one of the pivotal protagonists of the first non-conformist art groups “The Stars Art Group.” Huang uses art to promote social ideologies and initiated some of the first free art expressions in the Post-Mao era.
With regards to his practice, Huang has been largely influenced by the Book of Changes (I-Ching or Yi Jing). Huang explores the reduction of pictorial elements in painting and the universal harmony of spaces.
