San Francisco, CA: Catharine Clark Gallery continues its 2022 program with Witness 见证人, a solo exhibition of recent sculptures by Wanxin Zhang. Encompassing both representational and abstracted forms, Zhang’s work invites reflection on what it means to stand witness to social change. Upon entering the gallery, viewers encounter a rainbow-hued scholar’s rock, a sculpture that evokes the natural stone formations historically revered by Chinese intellectuals, but with bright, streaking glazes that suggest a landscape – and a historical tradition – in a state of flux.
