Groundwork for Visit to US - Visited Singapore Art Museum






Works by renowned artists such as Yeh Chi Wei and Wu Guangzhong were exhibited. Explanations of their pieces of paintings were mounted next to their works. The text and descriptions give rich words and expressions on how the artists expressed their inner thoughts and emotions in their paintings such as ".....when I come to a deadlock....I choose....However, I will revert to....when I feel that by dabbling in.." quote Wu Guangzhong. Yeh Chi Wei was quoted to use the expression 'sculpt picture' instead of painting a picture. Yeh Chi Wei also used archaic characters to "lend antiquity and nostalgia to his subjects."
