+ OVERVIEW

Ding Yi is one of the leading Chinese abstract artists. After graduating from the Shanghai Art & Design Academy in 1983, Ding Yi was involved in designing toys and toy packaging. The "cross" symbol was used extensively on these drawings to denote the need for the application of colors. This experience gave Ding Yi the inspiration for his "Appearance of Crosses'' series of paintings, in which he sought to bring painting back to its essential formalist nature. "Script No.2" this abstract drawing is composed with vivid colors, seems like a crystal ball, or overlooking the city landscape at night, full of imaginary and contemporary conception.
