Product Description

This book is the catalogue of the exhibition Sketches of Nudes by Tsang Kai-hong which features Tsangs recent sketches of nudes as well as earlier drawings and engravings. His drawing skills were originally founded on the careful attention to modelling volume and texture of the Soviet socialist realistic manner of the 1950s. He later assimilated German expressionistic style and a geometrical approach with traditional drawing and Chinese painting techniques. Tsangs recent sketches of nudes are characterized by rhythmic line and subjective creativity rendering in his figures the element of resonance in the language of Chinese painting. The art of the nude reflects not the reality of a model but the perception of the bodys beauty expressed by the artist. show more
