Fine Art Asia 2015: Chubby Comedy - Xu Hongfei

With fluid, vivid poses and buxom female bodies, world renowned sculptor Xu Hongfei’s “Chubby Women” sculptures convey a sense of exquisiteness, representing the beauty of freedom and revealing the powerful strength of art. His artworks not only inherit the traditional Chinese aesthetic perception of beauty, but also combine the liberal spirit of the modern world. With his appealing artistic language, his sculptures are able to eliminate barriers of language and social standards, travelling to countries all around the world. 

Over the past three years, Xu and his “Chubby Women” stepped foot in various international art centres and iconic landmarks, including Forbidden City (Beijing), The Louvre (Paris), Palazzo Medici Riccardi (Florence) and Ortaköy (Istanbul). After a successful and well-received world tour, Galerie Ora-Ora is delighted to welcome Xu Hongfei and his latest works to this year’s Fine Art Asia. The exhibition not only aims to share the joyful mood and modern aesthetic of the sculptures, but also to witness the unique and diversified art forms being incorporated with women’s voluptuous bodies.
