Tally Beck Contemporary will present an exhibition of new oil paintings by Tasmania-based Chinese artist Chen Ping, entitled Unseen Forest: New Oil Paintings by Chen Ping that will comprise 12 medium- to large-scale new oil paintings and four smaller, oil-on-paper figure studies. Chen Ping’s new work demonstrates a move toward a more polychromatic palette and denser, more gestural compositions.

Chen Ping has shown extensively in Asia and Australia and had his inaugural solo exhibition in the U.S. at Tally Beck Contemporary in November 2010. In addition to participating in numerous group shows, Chen Ping has had work in many art fairs with Tally Beck Contemporary, including SCOPE New York, SCOPE Basel, artMRKT San Francisco, artMRKT Hamptons, Art Asia Miami and Texas Contemporary. Recently, his paintings have been added to distinguished collections of international collectors.
