Description
CHU TEN-CHUN (Baitou Zhen, Jiangsu, China, 1920 - Paris, 2014).
Untitled, from the Suite Olympic Centennial, 1992.

Signed and justified in pencil.
Size: 63 x 90 cm; 75 x 100 cm (frame).
Chu Ten-Chun was born in 1920 in Jiangsu Province. His artistic inclination came from the cradle, as his family was composed of doctors and collectors of Chinese painting. He began studying art at the age of 15 at the Hangzhou Academy of Fine Arts and became a professor at the National Central University of Nanking. In 1949 he moved to Taiwan and became a professor of art at the National University. In 1955 he moved to Paris to learn from the best and began exhibiting in the City of Lights. And in 1997, he was the first Chinese artist to be elected as a member of the prestigious Academy of Arts and Letters in Paris. His artistic goal since then has been to unite Eastern and Western art without abandoning his Chinese artistic roots, which gives him that uniqueness. His works, practically all of them abstract, are Chinese landscapes, very poetic, which instead of showing, suggest rocks, waterfalls, mountains, coloured clouds... allowing the spectator to feel what is in each work. His work exudes energy and vitality, seeming to have a life of its own. They are incredible compositions that intermingle romantic and abstract styles to give the works a special significance. Thanks to the opening up of mainland China to the outside world, Chu Teh Chun is now known and highly praised in his homeland, where he has held countless exhibitions.
