A touch of the past
Entitled "Hard to part with the past,"Liu Wen-quan's oil painting exhibition will be shown at the Wan Fung Art Gallery
With the theme set widely on landscapes,still lifes and figures,Liu's works present various to viewers.For the artist,however, depiction of the past is his favourite.
Born and raised in the countryside,Liu cherishes a deep love towards old houses and vast land.With those old memories in mind,he tries to find inspira-tion from classic Chinese literature.The figures and settings depicted in the books are always the con-cepts of his paintings.
Under the old Beijing pailous (a former ceremonial gate),people in ancient costumes ramble along the street;barbers do business under the sun;old people enjoy their leisure time playing Chinese chess;even portrait of Empress Cixi transmits a sense of mild-ness.
The exhibition will display some 30 works chosen from his recent creations.With realistic painting techniques combined with an element of abstract ap-proach,the works convey a harmonious and natural atmosphere.
Born in Sichuan Province and residing in Beijing,Liu is a professional painter.For him,painting is a kind of life style offering him enjoymert and satisfac-tion.
Liu will be at the gallery at 3pm on April 16.
