Located in San Diego, CA
"Jiang - Father of the Yunnan School" A catalogue raisonne book of Jiang Tiefeng's original works signed by the Chinese artist, circa 1998. The book is in excellent, like new condition with no torn or missing pages and the original dust jacket. The book covers both Jiang's paintings and sculptures from 1982 to 1998. Gorgeous photography and lay-out. 126 pages. #3961
Jiang is the founder of the Yunnan School of Painting, one of the most important contemporary movements of abstract art in China. His works are richly colored and his imagery contains figurative elements with contrasting patterns. Considered to be at the forefront of contemporary Chinese art, Jiang paints as if creating stained glass windows, concentrating on women, horses, birds, and flowers through brightly colored ink and calligraphic lines.
Jiang attended the Central Academy of Fine Arts in Beijing. He studied with the renowned Chinese artist, Huang Yong-Yu. During the 1960s and early 1970s, Jiang was assigned to produce propaganda posters during Mao’s Cultural Revolution. At night Jiang secretly worked on his own style.
He works primarily in watercolor and serigraphy and his works have been actively collected worldwide since the early 1980s. From 1976 to 1983, Jiang served on the board of directors for the Yunnan branch of the Chinese National Art Association. He was also a member of the Chinese Woodblock...
