Color, consumer culture, and contemporary art – the striking visual world of Sun YitianThe catalog is being published on the occasion of Sun Yitian's third solo exhibition at Esther Schipper in Berlin in May 2025. In recent years, the artist has gained international attention. She is known for her colorful acrylic paintings of mass-produced objects, mostly depicted from photographs she has staged herself. Painted in bright colors, inflatable toys or doll heads initially appear hyperreal, but on closer inspection dissolve into painterly abstraction. In this way, Sun Yitian addresses the tension between banality and pathos, consumer culture and individual expressiveness. The volume offers a comprehensive insight into her work and, in addition to numerous illustrations, includes a conversation between the artist and Udo Kittelmann as well as an essay by Chus Martínez.
