北京艺术界的信息、评论、随笔
sinopop 是安静：北京中央美术学院，美术史系的硕士生，专业艺术文稿译者，评论家。从2004年生活于北京。
sinopop 是关于中国的美术（当代和古代、高尚和通俗）与流行文化。它试图向国外介绍艺术家、媒体、画廊、博物馆等，并运用更完整、所谓本地的观念判断这些，希望可以使这些陌生的文化溶入它正确的背景。
在这里有个人、独立的观点；sinopop 不使用 “信息积累” 的方式编辑并选择内容，而使用见多识广的办法。
随着安静的中文写作的发展会出现更多的汉语报道。感谢大家的关注！

王光乐的棺材－－多样多彩»
until May 14
According to tradition in his hometown, elderly people will paint their coffins with one layer each year. Wang Guangle has adopted this to the canvas, in remarkably more colorful layers than we might see on coffins. As always, his work reveals time, patience, and the somewhat unexpected results of turning concept into canvas.
In Platform China’s project space, Huang Liang offers a morbid encounter with illness. Misdiagnosed with cancer in his early adulthood, cool shades of clinical gray seem to still haunt his memory. Although Huang Liang’s tactile painting style of oil on canvas is nothing new, or unfamiliar from academic artists, Huang shows talent with paints.
Small, unframed and unmounted canvases of hospital scenes are arranged across the wall like snapshots, juxtaposed with enormous canvases depicting X-rays.
杨帆 《春天》»
until April 6 @ Star Gallery
In a drastic departure from her works on canvas, Yang Fan has produced a carpet of colorful poof-balls that she culled from the storerooms of clothing and toy factories in her native Guangdong. Yang Fan is formerly known for her series of paintings of young women in fashion plate style, the series, ever popular with Asian collectors, did not resonate with Western audiences.

Both books are published by Sanlian Bookstore, are in their 4th and 2nd […]
旅游吧！中国博物馆的指南书»
Miriam Clifford, Cathy Giangrande and Antony White, have reportedly spent four years combing through China’s hundreds of museums in a search for the most appealing to Western audiences. The result is an in-depth guide to China’s museums that opens up new territories for English-speaking audiences, presumably Western travelers, but for a special, more adventuresome set interested in witnessing China’s cultural growth from a more native perspective. “China: Museums” includes the major players, such as the Forbidden City as well as Chinese equivalents of what could be called “Roadside museums.”

Included within are 30 artists, each artist includes a short introduction, three full pages of color images, and up-to-date artist resumes, there is even a photograph of each artist, in the old school, i.d. photo style.
