On June 23, 2023, Stonecube Art Association held an exhibition for artist Stone Chun Shi in SoHo at 19 Howard Street, New York City, which achieved great success.
The exhibition showcased thirteen pieces of Chun Shi's Stonecube oil paintings.
Stonecube is a unique artistic language using Chinese calligraphy created by Stone. With specially mixed oil colors on traditional canvas, he paints cubes as if writing Chinese characters. Each cube has a different color, but the shapes, sizes, and thicknesses are remarkably similar. Up close, they resemble abstract cubes of various colors, but from a distance, they form a photo-realistic landscape, characters, and scenery.
Chun Shi rarely participates in exhibitions primarily because his painting style is highly challenging, and each artwork has a long creation cycle, resulting in a limited number of pieces. This art exhibition was held to support the nonprofit art organization Stonecube Art Association's Art Saves Space initiative. Art Saves Space is a philanthropic activity that transforms vacant commercial spaces in the New York City area into suitable exhibition venues, providing free exhibition spaces for New York artists.
As a private exhibition, many of Stone’s friends, collectors, and artist acquaintances attend the show. Everyone was deeply impressed by his recent work.
