Description
Chen Danqing (B. 1953), Mountains and rivers of China, Collagraph Print
Size: 29 by 21 in. (73 by 53 cm.) All measurements are approximate.
Signed (lower right)
This painting, "Mountains and rivers of China" was created by Chen Danqing in 2008. He reproduced in oil the classic landscapes, bamboo and rocks, and Xanadu by three masters - Ni Zan, Jian Jiang, and the monk Shi Tao.
Chen Danqing uses oil paint to recreate the traditional Chinese ink wash painting and uses Ni Zan's original Shading painting method to near perfection - drawing lines and turning sideways to outline the structure of the sloping rocks and the craggy and deep scenery.
At the same time, he replicated the layers of mountains, gurgling water, cypress and pine, and jagged rocks close to the originals, creating a bright and elegant, simple and ethereal aesthetic.
Chen Danqing is an American-Chinese painter known for his realist depictions of nudes and rugged landscapes. Influenced by the paintings of Jean-Francois Millet, Chen empathetically portrayed Tibetan farmers and herdsman. Born on August 11, 1953 in Shanghai, China, he created propaganda art as teenager depicting the feats of Mao Zedong. Chen went on to enroll at the Central Academy of Fine Arts in Beijing. In 1982, the artist immigrated to the United States, where he spent the next 18 years writing and painting in New York. During his time in New York, Chen befriended fellow artist and activist Ai Weiwei. Ai and Chen published the book Interviews Not About Art in 2007. The artist currently lives and works in Beijing, China.
