HdM GALLERY

Thank you to everyone who attended the opening of Zhou Gongmo’s first solo exhibition at the HdM Gallery Square Room!

His work is deeply rooted in the visual experience of digital imagery. As an artist living abroad, he has increasingly relied on screens to stay connected with family members. The physical distance and absence in communication have prompted him to reconsider the authenticity of images in the digital era.

Happy Birthday to Chen Han! 🎂

We wish our artist all the best in the coming year!

Chen Han has that liveliness of gaze known only to painters. The ever-floating atmosphere that permeates Chen Han's canvases gives ample space to our own presence. We too are part of the unfolding scene, distant enough to appreciate it yet close enough to taste it.

DM to enquire about Chen Han's available works. We will also be exhibiting his works at Art021 Art Fair in Shanghai.

Gioele Amaro in collector’s home!

Originally trained as an architect, Gioele Amaro has retained from his formal education a fascination for materials and surfaces. Gioele Amaro's work can be read as both a contemporary commentary on painting and an exploration of new ways of producing and thinking about it.

Alexander Tinei's solo show "Beyond Surfaces" is now closed. Thank you to everyone who visited the show - it was a pleasure seeing familiar faces, as well as getting to know all the new collectors and enthusiasts!

Thank you to Isabelle Bernini for curating this exhibition!

Happy Birthday to Yeonsu Ju! 🎂

We wish our artist all the best in the upcoming year!

Yeonsu Ju lives among the spirits. As she herself explains: "I take inspiration from 'Gijesa', a spiritual ritual practiced in Korea as a way for Koreans mourn for the deceased. It is a Confucian memorial rite held to honour the ancestors at the earliest hour on the anniversary of their death with food offerings prepared the day before."

DM to enquire about Yeonsu's available works.

“Beyond Surfaces" is now open! Thank you to everyone who joined us yesterday for the opening dinner! We welcome visitors to our Paris space by appointment.

Dominated by bold, sometimes saturated colours, Alexander Tinei’s paintings form an apparently unstable assemblage: the figures – mostly solitary – seem to get lost in their environment in such a way that we can only catch them and lose them again immediately. The silhouettes are as much imbued with the openwork background as they are detached from it, asserting their posture in a shifting context.

We’re pleased to introduce the Square Room - a new part of our Beijing gallery space dedicated to exhibiting up and coming talent. We open the room with a solo exhibition of Hu Shunxiang - “The Outsider” which will be on view until 29th of October.

This exhibition draws inspiration from the novel “L’Étranger”, by French author Albert Camus, delving into the hidden narratives underlying in the book. Acting as a “conductor,” Hu Shunxiang tries to construct a series of paintings with theatrical settings that guide the viewer into a world full of philosophical metaphors and dramatic scenes. The exhibition will showcase a series of works created by the artist in 2024.

Happy Birthday to HdM Gallery artist - Hu Weiyi! 🎂

Hu Weiyi's work is distinguished by its innovative exploration of artistic media, including video, sculpture and installation. He strives to create immersive sensory experiences that question the complex relationship between man, technology and nature. One of the most striking features of his work is his ability to fuse visual and aural elements to elicit profound and often ambivalent emotions.

DM to enquire about Hu Weiyi's available works.

Happy Birthday to Zheng Mengqiang! 🎂

We wish our artist all the best in the coming year!

Zheng Mengqiang's painting could be described as atmospheric. The figures occupying the seemingly empty spaces fill them with delicate emotion. We find ourselves caught up in this sudden intimacy, as if protected by these giants. In a setting reminiscent of Edward Hopper, Zheng Mengqiang soothes the viewer by showing only the final moment, playing on the slowness and decomposition of the simplest gestures.

DM to enquire about Zheng Mengqiang's available works

Happy Birthday to Manuel Mathieu! 🎂

We wish our artist all be best in the coming year!

Haiti and its spirits: these are the elements that inhabit Manuel Mathieu's work. Natural breaths and energies, magical and spiritual materials are blended into the mysterious skin that is his canvas.

HdM Gallery is pleased to announce our attendance at this year’s Asia Now Art Fair in Paris with a solo exhibition of Zhao Yinou. Visit us at booth H10 from 17 to 20 of October!

Zhao Yinou's fascination with the mystical is similar to that of the Pre-Raphaelites and Symbolists. In these intimate compositions, the figures seem to emerge from the gloom, coming to bring and seek a little light, in a continual struggle with the forces of night. The vertigo that Yinou succeeds in producing baffles our gaze, which is caught up in a scene in full motion that already seems to be evaporating in front of us. Beyond this interest in the forces of evil and the sacredness of the dark, Yinou delves into the comic and even the cosmogonic.

A beautiful feature of Olivier Hervet's residence in the Elle Decoration | Art de Vivre.

"Olivier Hervet, a partner of HdM Gallery, a forward-looking and pioneering gallery in the field of Chinese contemporary art, has brought this old house to life with his strong personal aesthetics and art collections from both the East and the West. Now it has become a small base in Paris for friends from the Chinese and French art circles, and artistic energy flows freely in the space."

From the artist statement: I opened a book the page just flipped to the that page which is written down "Death is a cool night, life is a sultry day", everything is just right. So this skull, symbolizing death, became a still life in front of a new work being born. It neither represented life or death, nor success or failure, but perhaps some jokes. I will stay still and see.

Yun Yongye | In the Pool of Day on view until 19 October.
