ShanZuo and DaHuang’s thinking, aesthetic, and creativity are an interdependence of eastern and western philosophy, art, and literature. Their passion urged them to leave behind their success in China, where they were hailed as national heroes for the arts and move to a global stage. In 1986 the Zhou Brothers moved to Chicago and followed their spirit to change the art world. In 2004, the brothers opened the 87,000 square foot Zhou B Arts Center in Chicago, providing artist residencies for hundreds of artists over the years as well as hosting numerous large scale exhibitions as a commitment to developing Chicago’s art scene.
The two pieces focus on elements of the painting Shanghai Takes Flight which now hangs in one of largest Jordan stores in China. The viewer is meant to experience a cultural crossover and spiritual journey from the West to the East. Soaring over the Huangpu River the Spirit (a consistent element of the Zhou Brother’s work) moves over land and water. Past the edifices of modern China, the spirit cannot be obstructed while in flight.
