As an outstanding scholar-painter, Zhong Han was one of the leading oil-painting artists and professors in China. Driven by an idealistic passion to create oil paintings with a unique modern Chinese style, Zhong produced a series of masterpieces with refined colors and a magnificent style, profoundly influencing the development of Chinese art.
The exhibition is composed of three units: The Zigzagging Yellow River, Never Alone in Art, and Poetic Scenery. It demonstrates Zhong Han’s creative process and artistic evolution over 60 years, showcasing his oil paintings, gouaches, and sketches from the collection of the Beijing Fine Art Academy.
