![]() Mu Pan, Our Summer Open Call Winner, finishes his Epic "One Thousand and One Noon" Download as PDF Last month we gave you an early peak at some of the amazing work that our Summer Open Call winner Mu Pan will be presenting in his March 23 solo show at 3rd Ward -- including the first panel of his One Thousand and One Noon, an epic watercolor work that takes its title from One Thousand and One Nightsand High Noon. Pan has now finished that piece's other two panels, and...just...wow. There's really no way to adequately describe this astounding triptych, so we'll just let you explore some of its vast expanses, intense images and rich themes in the details below. For more on Mu Pan, watch a video profile after the jump and check out this a recent interview by Japan Cinema. And, of course, mark those calendars for March 23-you truly don't want to miss this one. ![]() ![]() Upcoming Show // Open Call Winner Mu Pan brings his Epic Art To 3rd Ward in March.

Our Summer Open Call was our biggest one yet, and we are proud to announce Mu Pan is the Grand Prize winner, and will show his work at a solo show at 3rd Ward and in a feature presentation at Art Taipei.
