Pairing Qi Baishi with a famous Spanish painter and an American sculptor at the zenith of their respective careers, the gallery made a compelling connection between three artists. The exhibition included ninety works total, although the brochure illustrated just one work by each artist, with the present depiction of shrimp by Qi Baishi being the selected example for this artist's work.
