GUAN WEI is currently featured in Passage and Echo: A Dialogue Across the Century that recently opened at Vermilion Art in Sydney, alongside the works of Sidney Nolan.
In this captivating exhibition, Guan Wei reimagines Australia’s iconic Ned Kelly in a Chinese landscape—where his armor and silence merge with mountains formed by ink and cloud. The exhibition brings to life a vision that began when Guan Wei, at just 18, first encountered Nolan’s Ned Kelly and imagined this unexpected cultural fusion.
Now, decades later, that vision has become a powerful conversation across time and borders, reflecting the rich potential of cross-cultural exchange.
