展覽簡介：
張林海，1963年初秋生于上海， 1964年被養父抱回太行山脈里的一個小山村—河北涉縣。自幼體弱多病，因四歲時的一場大病導致腿部終身殘疾。1980年開始學畫，1990年畢業于天津美術學院版畫系。
此次展覽將完整呈現張林海由2002年至2008年創作風格及技巧發展。07年之前的早期作品將會從遍布全球的藏家處借回，藝術家全新風格的最新創作將會是展覽重點。
……
林海的畫，象中國許多畫家那樣，吸收超現實主義的因素，從寫實主義出發，走上一種類似中國古典詩詞的意象寫實主義。林海學版畫出身，油畫象版畫的處理方式，大面積的色調單純和強烈，也適合表現雷同的光頭和沉悶的情緒。

Exhibition Introduction
Born in Shanghai in 1963, Zhang Lin Hai graduated from Tianjin Academy of Fine Arts in 1990, with a degree in engraving. Zhang was adopted from a Shanghai orphanage by his foster parents and at a tender age he witnessed the devastation of the Cultural Revolution. He suffered from various illnesses, including polio, and at the age of four he survived his sickness, only to be left with a crippled leg and hand. By the age of 17, Zhang ventured out from his small village into the city. He settled in Handan and began to develop his interest in painting.
The exhibition will feature both a body of new works previously unseen by Zhang Lin Hai, as well as a collection of his older works brought back from private collections worldwide. These artworks span from 2002 to 2008 - demonstrating the artist’s mastery in development of both his style and technique.
……
Like many Chinese artists, Zhang Lin Hai is influenced by Surrealism. He began painting in the realist style and then moved away and into the poetic sensibility of Classical Chinese painting. Zhang Lin Hai studied engraving, so his work contains blocks of simple but bold colours, suitable to the themes of his paintings and the moods he wishes to convey.
