Beijing's Ullens Center for Contemporary Art will present a scaled and comprehensive exhibition of famed Chinese artist Zeng Fanzhi, 52.

Zeng Fanzhi: Parcours, to open on Sept 19, will engage the audience upon a time-travel journey through the diverse body of Zeng's works reflecting his evolution since the 1980s.

It will start with Zeng's early-phrase vanguard experiment when studying at the Hubei Institute of Fine Arts, in the provincial capital Wuhan where he was born and raised.

On show will include his most iconic Mask series, which he has been revisiting since the 1990s in Beijing, which embodies a spirit of constraint in Chinese traditional and won Zeng international recognition.
