Jinbin Chen: Returnees

View through Artsy
Kohn Gallery is pleased to announce the solo exhibition of Oslo-based, Chinese artist Jinbin Chen. This will be Chen’s inaugural exhibition with the gallery. In Returnees, Chen examines themes of encounter and desire through portraiture of fragmented bodies or subjects rooted in anonymity. Building on the artist’s intention to create desire from the everyday, Chen’s paintings utilize soft color to blend and romanticize the gap between the ideal and the past.
