Fall Preview - Inspirations from Yun Shouping

3/29/2020

0 Comments

 
Yun Shouping, also known as Nantian, was a Chinese calligrapher and painter. He was a major artist of the early Chinese Qing dynasty. 

Yun was born to a prominent but impoverished family in 
Wujin, Jiangsu province. He excelled in his classes and was expected to enter into the civil service, but his family could not afford it. Instead, he devoted himself to art; as early as the age of eight he was composing poetry on lotus blossoms. In his early life, he made a living painting landscapes.

We found beauty in several scroll painted by Yun Shouping.  With meticulous attention, prints have been digitally remastered and reinterpreted into a fabric form.  Weaving flowers and leaves on a sand background, bouquets in an oriental garden come alive and dance in delicate movement.

This Moment in Spring

3/16/2020

The 17th century Dutch still life painter Jan van Huysum was prolific in landscape paintings and floral still life masterpieces.  Rarely do we see these works in their unrefined studied state.  In the following collection, we celebrate the rough charcoal sketchings of van Huysum and find patterns that enliven floral bouquets from the two dimensional into organic works that leap from the canvas. In depicting wild flowers, irises, carnations, daffodils, chrysanthemums and foliage in uneven strokes and colorations, we witness the birth of flowers springing to life and the subtle movements of flora outside, in nature.  Our interpretations conjure a foggy dream-like state that envelopes us back home, often for a nap in bed.   ​
