Tang Shuo: Shadows of Boulder Hill

About

Tang Shuo (b. 1987) lives and works in London. He studied installation and material art at the Central Academy of Fine Arts (CAFA) in Beijing China and after moving to the UK in 2020 he turned solely to painting. In his work Tang draws on memories of his childhood in rural southern China and he appears as a figure in different roles and guises. Selected exhibitions include Shadows of Boulder Hill (2023) Fabienne Levy Gallery Lausanne and Geneva Switzerland; Paper (2022) Beers Gallery London UK; and Sync in Progress (2022) Tang Contemporary Art Beijing China. Fabienne Levy was born into a family of collectors in Lausanne. After studying art history at New York University she became an art consultant in Milan. In 2019 she launched her eponymous contemporary art gallery in Lausanne near the new Musée cantonal des BeauxArts curating five to six exhibitions annually. Her Space Invasion project nurtures local art school talent providing a professional platform for young people and she joined Art Pariss selection committee in 2023. Expanding her business she launched a Geneva gallery in 2023 which shows the same artists work simultaneously as her Lausanne base.
