Yan Pei-Ming: A Burial in Shanghai – April 16

We are thrilled to welcome you to our next exhibition preview of Yan Pei-Ming: A Burial in Shanghai.

These monumental works are being shown for the first time in the United States. Join us at the Member-Exclusive Preview to be among the first to view this awe-inspiring work.

Chinese-born painter Yan Pei-Ming (b. 1960) is noted for his commanding portraits and compositions that imbue conventional forms of representation with contemporary resonance. The artist alludes to traditions of Western art history and his own biography in A Burial in Shanghai. Comprised of three outsized canvases, this triptych echoes Gustav Courbet’s (1819–1877) celebrated composition from two-hundred years earlier, A Burial at Ornans (1849–1850).
