Nirmala Devi selects the best shows to see in town this winter

 

Gao Yuan, Capsule, through 25 December

 

Another Beijing-based artist, Gao Yuan, who also trained in animation, is actually showing a new animation, titled Cloud of the Unknown (2019), as well as a series of paintings used as backgrounds to the film, at Capsule Shanghai. Often richly colourful and drawing inspiration from the history of painting and Studio Ghibli-esque anime, Gao’s animations are richly symbolic and often explore the uncertain states of being and consciousness. (Rumi would like that.)
