// Moon Light on the Table by Wang Huai-Qing is a limited edition etching from 2008, created in an edition of 60. This artwork features a large, abstract black shape with angular, asymmetrical sides, resembling a draped tablecloth over a table. The texture of the black form contrasts with the rough, earthy background, suggesting a worn, aged surface. Curved, spiral-like shapes protrude from beneath the dark mass, adding a surreal quality. The stark contrast between the dark central form and the lighter, textured background evokes the subtle, quiet presence of moonlight illuminating the edges. Wang’s piece uses abstract forms to explore themes of emptiness, shadow, and illumination, hinting at the quiet beauty found in everyday objects under the soft light of night.

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.
