What's on in Beijing (March 3-9)

180 Faces

Works on show at artist Liu Wei's recent exhibition, 180 Faces, are not portraits of people in real life. Instead, the paintings of human faces are reflections of emotions and imaginations of the 62-year-old artist. Taking more than a year to finish, the "portraits" on cardboard represent a synthesis of the artist's pictorial concerns over the past years, and mark his foray into novel artistic territory.

The Beijing-born artist's paintings have been exhibited around the world, including in New York and at the Venice Biennale.
