We’re proud to see GUAN WEI’s Cloud B#3 travel from the National Gallery of Australia to Warwick Art Gallery as part of the Sharing the National Collection program - written about in a media release from the Minister of the Arts.
On view in the Southern Downs for the next two years, this striking bronze sculpture reflects Guan Wei’s distinctive visual language - blending Chinese cultural heritage with Australian symbolism.
"This loan offers rare access to a major contemporary artwork by an artist whose own story of resilience adds depth and relevance to our regional context. Its uplifting sense of positivity and gentle whimsy will spark curiosity, joy, and conversation, enriching our cultural landscape in meaningful ways.” - Warwick Art Gallery Director, Karina Devine
Congratulations to Warwick Art Gallery and the National Gallery of Australia on this important partnership and loan.
Guan Wei’s bronze sculptures are highly recognised for their unique fusion of Eastern and Western traditions, embodying his signature blend of cultural symbolism and contemporary form. Collectors value Guan Wei’s sculptures for their conceptual depth, meticulous craftsmanship, and their powerful engagement with themes of identity, history, and cultural dialogue.
