LIU DAN (B. 1953)Scholar’s Rock from Xiaogushanguan Scroll, mounted and framed, ink on paper42.3 x 39 cm. (15 3⁄8 x 16 5⁄8 in.)Inscribed and signed, with one seal of the artist Dated spring, renyin year (2022) Post lot text Meticulously rendered with a heightened sense of hyperrealism, Scholar’s Rock from Xiaogushanguan is an intimate portrait of a scholar’s rock with a jagged range of peaks and valleys, riddled with holes and depressions resembling mountain ridges. On the upper part of the painting is Liu Dan's fine standard script calligraphy, which consists of an extract from Wen Zhengming's Garden of the Inept Administrator and various historical writing about rocks. This piece depicted by Liu Dan here belongs to the owner of Xiaogushanguan, collector and artist Zeng Xiaojun.For Liu Dan, rocks are objects of mystery and uncertainty that provide sources of imagination for him to journey through the world from a microscopic viewpoint. With an ultimate fascination with the structural properties of things, Liu Dan actively removes his subjects from their original context. By decontextualising the subject matter, he abandons the narrative of his subject and elevates his paintings to a purely visual experience.Liu Dan’s work resonates with drawings by European Renaissance artists and old masters. However, a close-up view of the stone, with its ridges and textures, will lead viewers to the grandeur of traditional Chinese landscape paintings where one can wander. His mastery of ink and brush and his use of cross-cultural references enable him to free his work from the constraints of Chinese ink paintings. He does this while remaining true to the legacy, resulting in his spectacularly novel and contemporary images.
