As many art lovers flock in droves to downtown Beijing to see late Italian still life master Giorgio Morandi's solo, others make a point to visit the capital's northeast end, where American artist Issy Wood, a rising star in the art world, is holding her first Asia solo at the X Museum.
Co-curated by Huang Xufu and Yang Yuqing, Issy Wood: Good Clean Fun, running through Feb 28, presents about 50 pieces spanning painting, writing and installations from the young artist's recent practice.
Upon entering the museum's right hall, visitors are greeted by several large-sized velvet paintings depicting either luxurious car interiors or leather jackets in tight close-up.
