Zao Wou-Ki (1920 - 2013) was a Chinese painter and printmaker naturalized French in 1964.
He was a member of the Académie des Beaux-Arts in Paris and is one of the most successful Chinese painters.
Zao Wou-Ki graduated from the China Academy of Art in Hangzhou, the most famous art school in China, where he studied under Lin Fengmian, Fang Ganmin and Wu Dayu.
In 1948, he went to live in Paris with his wife Xie Jinglan and in the 1950’s he visited the United States, Tokyo, and Hong Kong.
Zao Wou-ki's works are orientated to abstraction and stylistically like the Abstract Expressionists whom he met while travelling in New York.
Back in Paris he was attached to the new School of Paris and then to Lyrical Abstraction.
His meetings with Henri Michaux pushed him to review his Indian ink techniques, always based in Chinese traditional drawings

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.
