サザビーズさんのインスタグラム写真 - (サザビーズInstagram)「Executed from 1989 to 1990, this museum-quality masterwork by Zhang Xiaogang is a rare and singular historical treatise at once personal and monumental. Hailing from the collection of Johnson Chang, the eminent curator who pioneered the genre of Chinese contemporary art in the early 1990s, the present triptych combines prestigious provenance with historical gravitas. The three heads express the sequential themes of the title: terror, meditation, and melancholic acceptance. This is one of only 2 triptychs recorded amongst Zhang’s early works, and arguably the most important work by the artist marking a pivotal transition from his romantic, idyllic symbolism of the late 1980s to the condensed iconography of the 1990s, paving the way for his iconic Bloodline series.⠀ ⠀ Zhang Xiaogang⠀ The Dark Trilogy: Fear, Meditation, Sorrow⠀ 1989-1990⠀ oil and mixed media on canvas, in three panels ⠀ (i)179 by 114cm. 70 1⁄2 by 44 7⁄8 in.⠀ (ii) 179 by 114 cm. 70 1⁄2 by 44 7⁄8 in.⠀ (iii) 177.8 by 114.3 cm. 70 by 45 in.⠀ overall: 179 by 342.3 cm. 70 1⁄2 by 134 3⁄4 in.⠀ HK$ 25,000,000 – 45,000,000 ⠀ US$ 3,225,790 – 5,806,200⠀ ⠀ The First Avant-Garde: Masterworks from the Johnson Chang Collection⠀ Contemporary Art Evening Sale⠀ 6 October, Hong Kong⠀ ⠀ #sothebyscontemporary #sothebyshongkong #zhangxiaogang #johnsonchang」9月6日 14時37分
