1970s Robert Kuo Brown Floral Enameled Chinese Cloisonne Bud Vase & Stand
By Robert Kuo
Located in Dayton, OH
"Vintage 1970s to early 1980s cloisonne vase by Robert Kuo. Features a predominantly brown, green and blue floral design and a snugly fitting wooden base. Marked in gold on the base.“Robert Kuo's own story presents a life that partakes of the best of Chinese and 20th century traditions. Born in Beijing, he moved with his family to Taiwan in 1947. Kuo grew up in an artistic environment. His father, an art professor and Chinese watercolor painter, started a cloisonne atelier where Robert became an apprentice at age fifteen. Although he never engaged in formal art studies, Kuo gained technical expertise and learned about decorative tradition from ""hands on"" training. As he mastered each of the steps involved in cloisonne from preparing copper bases to enameling and firing the kilns, Kuo absorbed all the basics that were to serve him throughout his artistic career. Measure: 9".
While pursuing his studies in Taipei, Kuo assisted his father in the creation of a cloisonne studio. A visit to the United States persuaded the young artist/entrepreneur that the American environment would benefit him, both personally and professionally. In 1973, he immigrated to the United States and opened a studio for cloisonne in Beverly Hills. Kuo cultivated a clientele that appreciated the way he ""opened up"" Chinese tradition. Utilizing the influences of Art Noueau...
