JIANG TIE FENG Original GOLDEN ZEBRA Bronze Sculpture Signed Art Chinese TieFeng

Tiefeng Jiang, often simply signed as “JIANG,” is a Chinese contemporary artist best known for his richly colored and intricately detailed figurative prints that fuse traditional Chinese aesthetics with modern techniques. Born in 1938 in Ningbo, Zhejiang Province, Jiang was trained at the prestigious Central Academy of Fine Arts in Beijing. His early career was shaped by China’s Cultural Revolution, during which he was commissioned to create art aligned with national propaganda. However, his personal style eventually emerged as distinctly lyrical and symbolic, combining Chinese mythological motifs, Tang Dynasty influences, and a deeply emotional palette. In the 1980s, Jiang emigrated to the United States, where he gained international recognition, particularly for his large-scale serigraphs and lithographs. Jiang’s large prints are celebrated for their opulence and complexity. He often depicts idealized female figures clothed in flowing robes and adorned with ornamental headdresses, surrounded by flora, birds, and other symbols of prosperity and mystery. Works such as Emerald Woman or Spring Blossoms exemplify his use of deep jewel tones—emerald greens, sapphires, and rich reds—layered meticulously to create a glowing, almost tapestry-like effect. His prints are produced in limited editions, often signed and numbered, using high-quality serigraph techniques that allow for subtle gradations of color and texture. These large works function almost like modern-day scrolls, commanding attention in any space and revealing Jiang’s unique ability to blend cultural history with contemporary appeal. Today, Jiang’s large prints are widely collected, particularly in the U.S. and Asia, and remain a staple in fine art galleries and private collections. While the broader Chinese art market has seen fluctuations in recent years, the demand for Jiang’s work—especially his major prints in perfect condition—has remained steady. Their timeless beauty and fusion of East-West aesthetics continue to resonate with collectors who value both decorative richness and symbolic depth.
