Taiwan’s Three Masters of Modern Art November 1 - December 13, 2008 Asian Arts Gallery, Center for the Arts Opening Reception: Saturday, November 1, 3-5 p.m.
Rooted in the fashions of the twentieth century, yet grounded firmly in tradition, modern Taiwanese art boasts a history of surprising diversity and change. With increased Western influence, artists took a complete break with tradition and embraced the avant-garde movement of the 60’s. Among them are Liao Shieu-Ping, Li Shi-Chi and Chu Wei- Ber. These three widely celebrated artists have developed a distinctively individual style through decades of exploration and ingenious innovations. This joint exhibition displays the recent output of their creative works on paper, wood and lacquer. Admission is free.
