// Day Bed-2 by Wang Huai-Qing is a limited edition etching created in 2006, produced in an edition of 60. This artwork features bold black forms resembling fragmented bed-like shapes, set against a mostly blank background with faint traces of smudges and earthy tones along the edge. The abstracted shapes evoke the outline of traditional Chinese furniture, reduced to minimalist silhouettes that carry a sense of presence and absence. The arrangement and dark forms give a feeling of stillness and simplicity, reflecting Wang’s exploration of cultural memory and the quiet beauty of everyday objects. Day Bed-2 invites viewers to ponder on the significance of personal and cultural artifacts, hinting at the intersection of memory and materiality.

What is late modernism?
Late Modernism refers to the continuation and evolution of Modernist principles in art, architecture, and literature from the mid-20th century into the late 20th century. This movement maintains a focus on form, abstraction, and the rejection of traditional styles, but it often incorporates more complexity and ambiguity compared to early Modernism. Late Modernism explores themes such as alienation, identity, and the fragmentation of reality, reflecting the social and cultural shifts of the post-war period. It is seen in the works of architects like Louis Kahn and artists like Francis Bacon, who pushed the boundaries of Modernism while responding to the changing world around them.
