Liu Yuanshou, 1967 | Figurative painter

Liu Yuanshou [劉元壽], Chinese painter, was born in Beijing in 1967.
He earned a degree in oil painting from the Capital Normal University of Beijing in 1991, and has exhibited in and won awards in many prestigious exhibitions throughout Asia, including China, Taiwan, Hong Kong and Japan.
While Liu Yuanshou hails from the austere north of China, he has become fascinated by the seductively temperate cultural and physical climate of the eastern coastal province of Jiangsu, which lies east of Anhui and north of Shanghai.



Silkworm culture is and always has been an important part of Jiangsu's history, as is the production of silk textiles.
Perhaps because of this circumstance, silk is especially evident in Liu's art, which primarily focuses on portraits of young women from the Jiangsu region.

Liu Yuanshou è uno dei pittori Cinesi contemporanei più apprezzati ed importanti.
E' nato a Pechino nel 1967. Ha conseguito la laurea in pittura ad olio al Capital Normal University di Pechino nel 1991.
I suoi dipinti a olio su tela rappresentano donne elegantemente avvolte nella seta rossa. Le loro pose, però, non comunicano affatto serenità, esse sembrano sconvolte e disperate nella loro difficile lotta contro la miseria.
Un ennesimo sguardo alla Cina attraverso l’arte e i suoi modi di esprimersi e di comunicare emozioni.
Yuanshou ha esposto ed ha vinto dei premi in molte prestigiose mostre in tutta l'Asia, compresa la Cina, Taiwan, Hong Kong e Giappone.
