    'Laborer series-Worker No. 2(2011 - 2021)
    This is what artist Zhang tells about his sculpture:

    'This is a group of sculptures about the memories of my childhood life. It is a combination of metal sculptures and old objects, full of the breath of life.

    I was born in an ordinary rural family in northern China. My ancestors have lived a life facing the loess and back to the sky for generations. Hard work has maintained a poor and simple life. When I was young, I followed the adults to work in the fields, which is the deepest memory of my childhood. . Walking on the natural land, you can smell the mud and hear the sounds of nature. Parents say you have to study hard, take university entrance exams in the future, and leave here; when I arrived in elementary school, the teacher said that knowledge changes destiny, and you have to make progress every day and leave here! Slowly, books became my object of labor.

    One day, when I went to university, I studied more and more textbooks, which seemed to make sense, but I couldn't understand it more and more. After graduating, I came to Beijing, engaged in artistic creation, and was as busy as the people here. What is the result of spiritual labor and material? People all need jobs, why? Is work destiny? Where is fate taking us? I don't know, but I am sure that we can no longer stop, and we can't go back to the past!'

    The last of this edition 8/8 is available at Galerie Kunstbroeders. This is the only sculpture which could land in Europe. Al others in this series of 8 are sold in China.
  • A proposito di opere artista

    «Il romanticismo non si situa precisamente né nella scelta del soggetto, né nella verità esatta, ma nel modo di sentire». – Carlo Baudelaire

    La citazione del poeta francese Charles Baudelaire riassume perfettamente il carattere di Zhang Ruo Yu e il suo atteggiamento nei confronti delle sue creazioni. Zhang si mette alla ricerca di un filo, un tema, uno stile, nel regno dei miti e delle leggende, qualcosa che dia libero sfogo a un senso di romanticismo. Da quel filo tesse intime opere di bronzo che catturano sottili profondità di emozioni e un senso di aspirazione verso l'infinito.

    Zhang ha un ironico senso dell'umorismo, come attesta la sua serie Stray Dogs. Eppure c'è sempre una premura e una sottile malinconia nelle creazioni di Zhang e un riconoscimento che al centro di tutto il romanticismo c'è la sofferenza.
