There are different ways to interpret landscapes in art, as well as different criteria to judge artworks with landscapes; and the ultimate standard is in a cultural way. There are also different ways to view landscapes. In ancient China, people used to climb to the high to view landscapes, which is a traditional way to appreciate landscapes. To gaze the mountains and the rivers, is a way ancient Chinese to look outside the world and to engage in introspection.

The nine artists, who exhibit their works in Landscapes/Insights, are viewing and showing a current panorama in China, including landscapes, nature, city life and so on.

In his Ming Dynasty Tombs, Zeng Li presents landscapes of four different seasons, objectively; while his Factories series, reveals the artist’s sharp perspective and crystal clear taste. Lu Yuanmin’s works are full of joyful enlightenments, as if they are Zenic anecdotes. Luo Yongjin captured the ephemeralness during his trip, when he improvised shooting floating light and images. Maleonn is building his own “landscapes” with vigorous images, which evokes a true feeling of hurt via a virtual environment. Dong Wensheng reinterprets tradition in his spiritual garden. Wang Yuming’s depicts his dreams, which have a peaceful surface, while brings lost and obsession to viewers. Chang He’s works are about caged animals in the zoo. They are supporting each others on a cruel yet extremely beautiful stage, waiting for their ends, pathetically. Yan Yibo uses his lenses to anatomize this city’s moods and body. Bo Yunjun brings a sense of hesitation in his art, which is usually overlooked by many people, blurred yet solid. Because of his persistence, Bo is waiting, hesitantly.
These artists created a panorama of life in different capacity, by imposing their own ideas into the real landscapes. Everyone gets his own insights from the landscapes in this world, and therefore, everyone is experiencing a ceaselessly changing world.

In the end, there are only pieces of images, for the insights of landscapes are silent.
