GALLERY B

June 27 - August 9, 2008
Survey of Contemporary Chinese Paintings
Reception : Friday June 27, 2008 5:30 - 7:30pm

Gallery 210 starts its summer exhibition season with a special exhibition co-sponsored with the Center for International Studies at the University of Missouri-St. Louis. The exhibition Contemporary Chinese Painting from the Harbin Art School: Gao Huimin , Gang Li, Wang Long Lu Yunshun will feature the work of four artists associated with the Harbin Normal University in the Heilongjiang Province of China. Harbin Normal University is well known for its higher education in the arts, its high quality faculty, and advanced facilities.

As the exhibition title indicates the exhibition features paintings executed in the traditional style known in Chinese today as guó huà, meaning 'national' or 'native painting', in opposition to Western styles of oil painting which became popular in China in the 20th century. Traditional painting involves essentially the same techniques as calligraphy and is done with a brush dipped in black or colored ink.
