With a limited edition of 90 prints, each annotated "E.A." (épreuve d'artiste) and hand-signed by the artist, this lithograph represents a rare and coveted piece in the realm of contemporary art.
Zao Wou-Ki, a renowned Chinese-French artist celebrated for his abstract compositions and mastery of color and form, brings his distinctive style to "Composition Agerup 183." Through bold brushwork and dynamic gestures, he creates a captivating visual narrative that invites viewers into a world of exploration and discovery.
In "Composition Agerup 183," Zao Wou-Ki's dynamic brushstrokes and richly layered textures converge to form a vibrant and immersive landscape of color and movement. The composition pulsates with energy, as rhythmic patterns and organic forms dance across the surface of the lithograph, creating a sense of depth and dimensionality.
With each viewing, new details emerge, revealing the intricacies of Zao Wou-Ki's artistic process and the depth of emotion infused into every brushstroke. The interplay of light and shadow, the harmony of contrasting tones, and the fluidity of line converge to create a visual symphony that captivates the imagination and stirs the soul.

Zao Wou-Ki
Zao Wou-Ki was born in Beijing, China, on February 13, 1921, to a wealthy family descended from the Song Dynasty.
French-educated Chinese artist Lin Fengmian was Wou-Ki’s teacher at the China Academy of Art from 1935–41 and encouraged him to study abroad in Paris. Wou-Ki made the move in 1948 with a substantial amount of financial backing and later adopted France as his new home, remaining in the country, besides a few short trips abroad, until his death.
In Paris, Wou-Ki quickly joined a large postwar French art circle, composed of key writers, poets, painters and cultural figures, including Joan Miró, Pablo Picasso, Riopelle and Vieira da Silva, among others. This networking helped position himself at the top of the Lyrical Abstraction movement. By his mid-30s, Wou-Ki had decided to devote his artistic career to abstract painting that blended Eastern and Western stylistic traditions.
In 2011, Wou-Ki was referred to in art publications as the top-selling living Chinese artist. He died in Nyon, Switzerland, on April 9, 2013, at the age of 93.
