About the Item
No. 217 is a unique painting by contemporary artist Hongyu Zhang. The painting is made with Indian ink, acrylic, pastel and engraving on grey cardboard mounted on canvas, dimensions are 92 × 60 cm (36.2 × 23.6 in). Dimensions of the framed artwork are 97 x 65 cm (38.2 x 25.6 in).
The artwork is signed, sold framed and comes with a certificate of authenticity.
Hongyu Zhang’s painting is deeply influenced by calligraphy and traditional Chinese art, with a continued emphasis on Indian ink. Using innovative techniques, he experiments with this medium to develop fresh creative approaches. By dipping a thick brush into varying ink dilutions, he achieves a range of grey tones to outline portraits, fill broad areas, and sculpt faces through a delicate interplay of light and shadow.
Hongyu Zhang’s technique is part of the oldest and richest artistic heritage in the human history. The artist fuses techniques from his ancestors with acrylic, oils and pastels from the West. He works on different mediums placed directly on the floor. The expression, however, is truly from western inspiration, and the influence of engraving is obvious in his paintings.

Zhang Hongyu
Hongyu Zhang’s artworks take root in calligraphy and traditional Chinese painting. The line creates the fundamental unity of all his works, particularly his portraits, which have a striking expressive power. The artist draws them on different mediums placed directly on the floor, with music helping him to find the strength, rhythm and movement of each work. He creates an energetic space that attracts and captivates, inviting us to decipher the artist’s nervous writing, which seems to have been invented to understand the depths of the soul. “For me, a work is the meeting between a subject and the artist’s thoughts, his experiences. It is about giving an impression, translating a feeling... This approach is central to the aesthetic system of traditional Chinese painting: it is more about expressing a sensation than painting a reality.’’
