Boers-Li Gallery is pleased to announce “I’ve Got Something”, a solo exhibition by the artist Zan Jbai, in Gallery2. This exhibition will feature new and recent paintings, and is the young artist’s first solo exhibition in China.

Zan Jbai randomly chooses images stored in our everyday visual memory, and then within his works, makes these images seem unfamiliar. They maintain easily recognisable characteristics, but are constantly being tampered with and altered from their original state; metaphors for life, politics and history are all concealed within these altered traces. “I’ve Got Something” represents a new period in Zan Jbai’s painting practice, in which he attempts to awaken a new vocabulary and an intuitive sense of form that can be used by both the artist and the viewer.

Zang Jbai  was born in Ningbo. He currently lives and works in Beijing and Paris.
