Catalogue of solo exhibition by Wilson Shieh at Osage Shanghai in 2008. 'Titled 'Lady Killers', the exhibition showcases the artist's latest series of paintings and drawings that expands his oeuvre of developing icons for the contemporary age. Amongst the varied layers of meaning that can discerned are the ambivalent tug of war between the sexes and the wry commentary on consumer culture. For Shieh, appearances are never quite what they seem to be. These new works also explore our seemingly insatiable fixation with celebrity and power symbols, such that a mere mention or suggestion of them would bring an indelible image to mind.' - extracted from the preface. Artist biography is also provided in the catalogue.
