...Ting Shao Kuang, a prominent
contemporary Chinese painter in America, has produced works
characterized by a combination of traditional
Chinese painting techniques and
the more expressive Western art
forms. He has created a unique style that does not belong
exclusively to the East or the West, but to the world. Ting
Shao Kuang was born in Chenggu,
a village located in the Norhern province of
Shanxi, China in 1939. In order
to survive his loneliness and alienation,
Ting turned to painting for solace. By age 11,
he was painting every day, using cooking oil as a medium for
his pigment. Despite his lack
of adequate supplies, he evidenced such remarkable talent
that, in 1954, he was given the opportunity to attend the
prestigious high school affiliated with the
Central Academy of Fine Arts in
Beijing. In 1957, Ting was
accepted at Jeijing's Central Academy of Arts and Crafts.
Although he was taught "socialist Realism" in his classes,
it was during this time that he discovered the works of
Picasso, Matisse and
Modigliani. The paintings of these artists inspired him to
experiment with new themes and techniques.... |
