Xu Zhen’s new limited edition sculpture Eternity-Six Dynasties Period Painted Earthenware Dragon, Sleeping Muse, from one of Xu Zhen’s most representative series of works, Eternity, which gathers Western and Eastern classical sculptures, is composed here of a replica of a Six Dynasties period painted earthenware dragon, and Brancusi’s masterpiece Sleeping Muse. This ancient Six Dynasties earthenware dragon of refined and pure lines, and the elegant serene muse head, separated by a dozen centuries of visual aesthetics, are gathered in a noble and simple form in this contemporary cultural context, bringing to the audience a new visual experience.
