Touched by Painting and Images: Wang Dai-shan
In the ever-changing contemporary art scene, Wang Dai-shan’s works offer a special visual experience. He never hesitates when it comes to using images for creation. Fully utilizing cross-media, he records his carefully decorated and chosen scene with photos, and then re-creates it in painting.
Like Vermeer, he uses a camera obscura to intensify glints of lights through ‘lens’. The lighting effects of images and the feelings conveyed through painting are distinguished characteristics of his artistic language. His works show life’s hidden yet true image.

Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Fairy Tale Of Flowers(Painted In 2009) by Wang Daishan was sold in the Asian 20th Century and Contemporary Art auction at China Guardian in Hong Kong in May 2017. The price achieved of HKD 177,000.00 (€ 20,211.02) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as HKD 150,000.00 – 250,000.00. However, buyers have had to dig much deeper into their pockets for other works by Wang Daishan - we have observed the highest auction result to date for the work Garden Series, which sold at auction in April 2015 for CNY 350,000.00 (€ 50,546.50).
