Please note that this painting has been confirmed by the artist’s studio.
A native of Beijing, Wang Mingming studied with artists Wu Zuoren, Li Kuchan, and Jiang Zhaohe, among many others. In 1978 he began work in the Beijing Fine Art Academy. Wang has exhibited in over 30 countries and has received numerous awards. As seen here in his choice of historical figures and symbolic imagery depicted with contemporary brushwork, colors and composition, he is interested in finding his own way to transmit China’s literati pictorial tradition into modern times.
