拍品专文
Teng Pu-Chun, born in Taiwan in 1957, graduated from the National Taiwan Academy of Arts (now the National Taiwan University of Arts). Encouraged by his father, Teng often observed patterns of stones and structures of trees since childhood, which gave him the sensitivity to perceive hidden details in solid texture. Upon graduation, Teng led a joyful life in eastern Taiwan to enjoy unfettered freedom.
Teng does not confine himself to the artistic traditions of the Tang, Song, Yuan, and Ming dynasties; his ink landscape appropriates realistic scenes with multiple perspectives. Teng’s works exude a sense of self-imposed freedom, expressed through his unique technique of “rolled wrinkle strokes”. With his refined and skilful brushwork, Teng creates paintings that are pure and delicate; they manifest a sense of unexpected majesty. Although the artist mainly portrays natural scenes of mountains, waters and trees in an archaic atmosphere, his fantastical and illusory representation seems to transport viewers to a surreal, magical realm of the contemporary landscape beyond what is seen by the naked eye.
