Description
At Art HK 12 this May, Alisan Fine Arts will be showcasing six important Chinese artists, including well known artists Zao Wou-ki, Chu Teh-chun, Chao Chung-hsiang, Walasse Ting, T’ang Haywen and Taiwan sculptor Ju Ming. These artists, except for Ju Ming, are part of the first generation of Chinese artists to leave the mainland in the 1940s and 50s and settle overseas to further their artistic talent and for various reasons chose not to return to China. Their works while rooted in Chinese tradition have been influenced by the West and show a distinct style of their own. For both Zao and Chu we will show works on canvas as well as prints. For Chao, T’ang and Ting we will show works on paper and as for Ju Ming we will include both bronzes and wood sculptures from his well known Tai Chi series.
In addition, we will display early works by Yu You Han and Li Shan, two key Shanghainese Political Pop artists. These early abstract oils are rarely seen in the market.
