VillageOneArt is pleased to announce the representation of Chinese artist Deng Xiao in America and Europe.

Deng Xiao (born 1986) is an artist based in Shenyang, China. His talented painting style produces lush figuration that speak to elements of Neoclassicism while folding in surrealist elements more redolent of Modernism.

Deng explores contrasts and amalgamations between beauty and destruction, classicism and modernism, as well as values of good and evil through this innovative art form. Deng Xiao employs this new artistic approach to examine the juxtaposition and fusion of values. Neoclassicism, with its emphasis on classical beauty and pursuit of precise universal values, blends with Surrealism, which seeks to express irrationality and the subconscious, exploring psychological and societal issues through illusions and peculiar imagery. By combining these two styles, a unique and individual artistic expression can be crafted, pushing the boundaries of art to new heights.
