About the Item

Chu Teh-Chun (1920-2014) or Zhu Dequn was a Chinese-French abstract painter acclaimed for his pioneering style integrating traditional Chinese painting techniques with Western abstract art. He was the first ethnic Chinese member of the Académie des Beaux-Arts of France. Chu Teh-Chun was born in 1920 in the town of Baitu in Xiao County, which was then in Jiangsu province but now part of Anhui province. In 1935 he entered the National School of Fine Arts (now China Academy of Art) in Hangzhou, Zhejiang, graduating in 1941. In April 1956, Chu painted an oil on canvas portrait of his wife Tung Ching-Chao, which won the silver medal at the Paris Salon. Chu called the painting his “lucky star”, after which his career became increasingly successful. Wu Guanzhong praised the painting as the “Mona Lisa of the East”. His paintings are now in the permanent collections of more than 50 museums all over the world. The Edition 44/99 of this lithograph "Encre Orageuse" is acquired into the permanent collection of Musee Cernuschi
