In what will be a defining moment in London’s art scene this year, HOFA Gallery is launching their new flagship space in the heart of London’s prestigious Mayfair on 18 March 2020.
The state-of-the-art 4000 sq. Ft space will see HOFA make their permanent mark on the art world to the delight of collectors and enthusiasts in London and international art markets.
HOFA will commemorate the launch with an inaugural exhibition featuring a new and innovative collection of captivating and vibrant sculptural paintings of renowned contemporary artist, Zhuang Hong Yi. Colourful, exquisitely detailed and inspired by nature, Zhuang’s 3-dimensional paintings have been a favourite with collectors since his emergence as an artist of reckoning. His ‘Flowerbed’ and ‘Landscape’ series have won him the attention of art connoisseurs globally.
Zhuang’s newest and most daring explorations of colour and structure within these series will make their début at the March 2020 solo exhibition. Developed in his signature sculptural style, which captures his visceral expressions on canvas, the art to be unveiled highlight Zhuang’s journey of artistic discovery and self-development.
The show promises to mark a major milestone in the evolution of this artist whose work endlessly fascinate and intrigue even as they harken to the sometimes-chaotic beauty of nature.
