Last Chance: ‘Shao Fan: Refrain / 复沓’ at White Cube Mason’s Yard until 27 June 2026.⁠ ⁠ In the essay accompanying the exhibition, Wenny Teo writes:⁠ ⁠ ‘Shao’s transcendence is grounded in practice, attention and touch, a patient loosening of time from the narrow measure of the present.⁠ ⁠ His return to antiquated styles and techniques is closer to the Daoist sense of fu 复: return, recurrence, reversal.⁠ ⁠ Yet Shao’s shen lao 審老, his ‘appreciation of oldness’, gives this return a more warm and intimate tenor. ‘Oldness’ is not approached as a remote historical ideal, but as something familiar, time-worn and still vital.’⁠ ⁠ 📍 ‘Refrain / 复沓’ will be on view at White Cube Mason’s Yard until 27 June 2026.⁠ ⁠ 🔗 Click the link in our bio to learn more about the exhibition.⁠ ⁠ #ShaoFan wennyytteo ⁠ Images:⁠ 1, 4, 7: Shao Fan, 'Refrain / 复沓', White Cube Mason's Yard, 22 May – 27 June 2026.⁠ 2-3: ‘Water and Fire 1825’, 2025.⁠ 5-6: ‘The Northern Sea 3’, 2023.⁠ 8-9: ‘The Arhat Washing His Beard...
