Lift Up and Let Go Painting

Winston Chmielinski (b. 1988, USA) is an artist based in Berlin, Germany. His paintings have received international acclaim (Art in America, Artnet, Vogue USA, Boston Globe), and have been exhibited extensively in North America and Europe (2017 Venice Biennale, 2016 solo shows at Galerie Thomas Fuchs and Magic Beans). Chmielinski's paintings reflect his synesthesial worldview and expertly blend the boundaries between recognizable forms and intuitive coloring. Chmielinski received his BA from NYU's Gallatin School in dance and philosophy, and continued his studies in Paris, and in Beijing, on world art history. Most recently, Chmielinski studied Kung Fu in Shandong Province, and worked directly with Ai Weiwei on his feature film, "Human Flow" www.wi-ch.com wi-ch.tumblr.com
