Yao Lu has created a thoughtful and timely series inspired by traditional Chinese paintings entitled New Landscapes in which mounds of garbage covered in green protective nets are assembled and reworked by computer to create images of rural mountain landscapes shrouded in the mist. New Landscapes will be on view until December 12 at Bruce Silverstein Gallery, 535 West 24th Street, New York City.
