huang zhou's bathing girl

huang zhou (1925-1997), one of the most outstanding chinese painters in the 20th century, was good at figure painting and animal painting, especially famous for his paintings of xinjiang figures and donkeys.


huang zhou is good at using sketching to capture the vivid forms of characters, with smooth lines, unconstrained brushwork and unrestrained style. he creatively integrated sketching into chinese painting, opening up a new paradigm of figure painting and confirming his position in the chinese painting world.


huang zhou :“i feel so insignificant in front of life....... " "i didn't paint enough, and i didn't work hard enough. when i got old and my health failed, it was too late to regret." he sighed: "in the face of life, i feel that i am very small and clumsy. no matter how well i paint, it is just a little bit. there is nothing to boast about." each of huang zhou's works exudes a strong breath of life and is simple and unpretentious. "my paintings all come from life. life is the source and the root. any artist must rely on his own efforts, not on genius. efforts cannot be made in the house. without life, there is no passion, and the painting slowly changes color. "many of his early works still look very wonderful, and the techniques are also very rigorous. in his early years, he followed the army to the northwest, like the qaidam basin, which was very desolate and magnificent. the country was developing and extracting oil there. "the picture of snow and wind in the wilderness" describes the scene of the exploration team looking for minerals in the snow and wind. in fact, art is first of all about emotion, and then technique. if you have emotion, you can create something true. if you moan without illness and pursue form, without feeling, just to please people, the things you create will sooner or later be eliminated by history. many great artists in history had hardships and ups and downs when they were alive, and they were recognized by everyone only after they died. good works must be recognized by the masses. don't lift yourself up too high. art must have life. formalism will never have a way out."
