During his two-month residency in Beijing in late autumn and early winter, French artist Gaspar Willmann found inspiration in the city's quiet details — mingling hues of fallen leaves and the charm of the hutong (alleyways). ▲ Gaspar Willmann, French artist Photo provided to China Daily These moments became the foundation of success for Willmann, a 2023 Yishu 8 French Young Artist Award winner. On Dec 7, his solo exhibition Compression was unveiled at Yishu 8, an art platform providing residencies for artists from France and China. The venue is located inside the historical building of the former Sino-French University in Beijing. ▲ A visitor walks past a painting by French artist Gaspar Willmann at his solo exhibition, Compression , at Yishu 8 gallery in Beijing.
