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.       Past Exhibitions   The following information shows listings of artists who have held exhibitions in Gallery B.
