Liu Guofu was born in Nanjing China in 1964. His artwork represents an outstanding achievement in contemporary Chinese infra-mince art, and shows us the true modern qualities and international potential for a “Chinese-style painting”, defining the artist’s unique and widely regarded technique which makes him one-of-a-kind in the Chinese contemporary art world.
In Liu’s new series, “Flower” and “Rock”, the cold blue mottled brushstrokes build in rhythmic layers, resulting in a uniquely translucent beauty. His abstract calligraphic-style, with deliberately illegible markings, overlap in tens of layers to create a fragile texture, reassembling dreams and illusions, smoke and water.
