Mr. Peng Feng's opening speech
When I first saw KwonNeung 's work, I found that this was an unusual artist. If the works of power are classified as a whole, most of them will say that he is postmodern art, because he will stitch together different elements; post-modern art is a mixed or omnivorous creative feature, which is more obvious in the work of power. But I would rather regard the creation of power as metamodernism, which is called Metamodernism in English. Because the works of power, when these image resources are stitched together, he does not collage for collage, but creates the image resources of the whole system rooted on the basis of an individual's survival experience; so there is a difference between him and the post-modern art of collage for collage.
Well, I think KwonNeung 's works are more suitable for the 21st century, especially in today's era, such a trend of contemporary art, so I am very grateful to Quan Neng for creating such a good work of art for us.——Peng Feng

Ms. Su Mang's live speech
I've been looking for it. What will happen after fashion? I finally found that fashion was followed by fashion art, just like when Andy Vojo pioneered the trend of pop art. So, in today's era of the prosperity of consumerism, what will be their art in the Z·generation, which is dominated by the post-Zero generation? Any era has its own artistic expression, whether it is the era of Degas or the era of Rembrandt, so what about now? What is it after 1990 and after 1990?
Modern young people like all kinds of time and space conversion. Almost all the big dramas we see now are time-travelling dramas, because in the hearts of this generation of children, robot cats are the real existence, and we can no longer ignore the children who grew up in the virtual era. They have the ability to build their own world so extraordinary, which is also the reason why I especially like power. I think everyone has their own inner desire. We have always been eager to live a beautiful life with the people we like in a world with only the people we like, but the reality is forever. It's far from possible. We always encounter so many unhappy things. However, artists can build a world of trendy art, a world that is only displayed in our minds. All the characters are your favourite and moved by your childhood. People can be happier in this world and "fly" in this world. This is what I especially like the creation of power. The reason.——Su Mang

Mr. Zhao Lixin, a famous actor, delivered a live speech
Mr. KwonNeung 's works, like his name, are really omnipotent. When I first stepped into this exhibition hall, I suddenly aroused my childlike innocence. It's the kind of eager curiosity in childhood, the impulse to fight desperately and guess who this is and who that is.
In fact, at that moment, I felt that Mr. KwonNeung had done a very remarkable action, which was to bring the art painting closer to our ordinary people. Let's walk into his personal world, but in his personal world, we can find the shadow of each of our childhood. In every continuous journey of life, we will encounter those great people and great works that inspire us and touch us. Then it will converge and form a beautiful ocean of memories in our memory. We will swim in it, and we will sometimes be confused here, But this kind of confusion is sweet, a kind of sweet confusion.
It reminds me of the painters who influenced me in my youth and my most difficult years, so I feel very intimate. I think such a painting exhibition is very meaningful. It brings us ordinary people in and walks into the ocean of endless nutrition of famous flowers, which is particularly beautiful.——Zhao Lixin

Mr. Zhang Haoran, a famous actor, delivered a live speech
Last night, I watched the online painting exhibition in Su Mang's live broadcast room all the time. I was so happy that I didn't go to bed until two o'clock last night, because I have been paying attention to the wave point fashion culture, and I am also a fan of Yayoi Kusama. I think the art of Mr. KwonNeung’s work is an artistic edification for our young generation of artists, and the masters and virtual characters who lead us to live together with a lot of beautiful pictures. So I am also very happy and honoured to visit the teacher's work today.——Zhang Haoran
Famous actor
Ms. Wei Li, Deputy General Manager of Sina Weibo, delivered a live speech
Today, I was very happy to come to Sister Su Mang's exhibition. When I came to the scene, I was really shocked. I also specially took my two children as representatives of the post-90s generation, not only the post-90s and the post-zero generation. In fact, they observed a lot of details in the process of observation. I think this is a communication of beauty to art. As a platform, as a platform for humanities, art and aesthetics on Weibo, we hope that the content of beautiful aesthetics can be transmitted and disseminated to the majority of users, so that they can know more about every artist in the creative process. Some inspiration and what he wants everyone to know. This is a connotation. I especially hope that there will be more such opportunities in the future. Thank you, Sister Su Mang, thank you.——Wei Li
Deputy General Manager of Sina Weibo
The artist KwonNeung speaks at the exhibition site
My creation comes from our surrounding environment, our experience and our life. I think all history and art have been integrated into our lives, which is a process that no one can refuse.
So I think all the art and history books are already under our feet. Now we need to start a new history and art under our feet. I hope everyone can go in that direction together. Thank you.
——Artist KwonNeung
Ms. Bao Yu spoke at the exhibition site
The artist has been preparing for this exhibition for three years and working 10-16 hours a day. We are honoured to cooperate with such a rigourous and rule-oriented artist.The exploration and innovation of classic works in art history has always been an eternal proposition created by an artist. Any artist is influenced by the context of art history. As a very young artist, Quanneng uses his unique perspective and seemingly disorderly structure to make the audience have different associations and understandings. Power is a quiet, emotional and delicate person who enjoys the feeling of travelling very much. His works have a feeling of travelling on the road.
——Bao YuCo-founder of the Common Art Center

The atmosphere at the scene reached its climax after the guest's speech. The art world created by power will break the traditional way of viewing and return to the daily nature of the classic image of art. I hope that the audience can watch the whole exhibition as a 'participant', experience the theatre sense and daily nature created by the whole exhibition, and experience the intimate relationship between the artist's life and creation for more than a decade.

--appreciation--
There is always a unique magic or interesting imagination in the painting of power, that is, a imaginative transformation of the classic objects and scenes in the history of art, in the sudden overlap of time and space or the cover of a new psychedelic atmosphere.

In the works of power, look for the cultural and historical context entangled in the "art symbol" in the work, and try to cut this symbol from the definition of the past. On the other hand, try to put it into a new context, which is the most interesting place for the viewer.
This exhibition will last for a month. All art lovers are welcome to visit!
