Zeng Mi’s works go on exhibit at West Lake
ZENG Mi, born in 1933, is an ink painting painter from China Academy of Art. From the 1980s on, he began to integrate his own painting style with that of Huang Binhong, a painting master who used to live in Hangzhou.
Huang was as popular as Qi Baishi, an influential Chinese painter noted for the whimsical and playful style of his ink painting works. The two were dubbed “Northern Qi and Southern Huang,” a reflection of their unparalleled status in modern art.
Zeng was considered an inheritor of Huang. His paintings switched between realism and abstraction and were characterized by heavier ink and majestic momentum. He usually splashes and soaks ink on paper to create different visual effects.
Though many people tried to purchase his works, Zeng decided to donate 66 paintings to Zhejiang Museum in 2006. Now, these donations are on exhibit along with another 14 paintings by Zeng in Zhejiang West Lake Art Museum through Sunday.
Date: Through March 27
Address: 25 Gushan Rd
