MASTERPIECE FINE ART - HONG KONG

Gerard Pieter Adolfs was a Dutch East Indies artist and architect. Gerard was a well-known advertising illustrator before he was introduced as an artist in Yogyakarta, Indonesia in 1924. Gerard was an ardent traveler and traveled for months at a time where he established studious in Florence, Rome, Vienna, Budapest, Prague, and, together with his Japanese friend Léonard Tsuguharu Fujita, in Paris. During his career, Gerard exhibited his works of art internationally in countries such as the Netherlands, Japan, Singapore, USA, England, Holland, Sweden, Norway, France, and Switzerland. In his works he has always attempted to represent the light, colour, and the simple joy of life that impregnates the scenes and his paintings had a menacing, even macabre quality to them, due to the dramatic light, a result of chiaroscuro. Gerard probably picked this up from Caravaggio (the inventor of chiaroscuro), whose works and those of other Old Masters, he had studied in Rome during his 1928 study tour as can be seen from the works reproduced, he has a bold, vigorous style, applying his pigments with quick strokes of the palette knife. Gerard was an ardent traveler, and captured the scenes of his travels in Europe, North Africa, Japan, and Indonesia where Gerard’s ability to capture light earned him a reputation as “The Wizard of Light” by the press.

Rustamadji studied arts under the tutelage of the Indonesian maestro S. Sudjojono when he was a member of the Sanggar Indonesia Muda (Young Indonesian Artist Association). Rustamadji painted in the realist-naturalistic style from the 1940’s to the 1960’s where his focused on the themes surrounding the daily life and experiences which were familiar to the people. Rustamadji paintings reflected the feeling of nationalism which became more popular after the more romantic-naturalistic Mooi Indie style of the 1930’s.Rustamadji was greatly influenced by the spirit of the time when he began painting as the Indonesian Revolution against Dutch colonial rule evoked sense of patriotism in him. His works were egalitarian with his underlying messages of social, economic, and political equality for everyone. Rustamadji was deeply inspired by people’s daily life and The Market Scene is one such example. He shows his expertise in presenting detailed forms, treatment of light and shadow, and creating a certain kind of mood. His mastery of the realistic technique captured a typical market scene full of boisterous activities, simple yet complete. The colors are mostly earthy and subdued, except in some of the clothing where contrasting colours brings the painting to life. There is great depth in this painting, and one can almost hear the chatter and bustling sounds of the market

Here, Alimin present the arrangements of fruits and flowers for the offerings in decorative style. The realistic portrayal of the figures is described in a static scene with detail of clothing and ornaments.

Chen Wen Hsi 陈文希 Like many of Singapore’s first-generation artists, Chen Wen Hsi was born in China and settled in Singapore, where he became one of the founding fathers of the “Nanyang School” — a style combining Chinese traditional ink painting with Southeast Asian influences. Chen’s most sought-after works are his Chinese paintings depiction of gibbons, squirrels, ducks, and sparrows. As an artist, he was never bound by tradition or medium as he was versatile in both Chinese ink and Western art. In his landscape works, Chen adopted various techniques. He was familiar with the conventional construction of a typical sanshui (mountain and water) painting like landscape through the accumulation of cunfa (texture strokes). However, his later works tend to be more evocative rather than providing a setting within which a viewer could wander through. In Chen’s painting of the Granite Mountain, the majesty of the mountain is conveyed by fragmented color planes rendered in bold strokes that almost fill in the entire surface. This is one of Chen’s exceptional works in canvas depicting a rocky mountain from close observation of nature as he combines both Chinese and Western tecnhiques. For his contribution to Singaporean arts, Chen was awarded with the Public Service Star (1964), a Gold Medal by the National Museum of History, Taiwan (1980), the first recipient of the ASEAN Cultural and Communication Award for outstanding artists (1987), and an honorary doctorate from the National University of Singapore. 015 CHEN WEN HSI 陈文希 (b.

Hendra Gunawan is an Indonesian maestro par excellence. Hendra taught at the Indonesian Fine Art Academy (ASRI), Yogyakarta in 1957 and took part in founding the Front Seniman (Artists Front) in Bandung, and Pelukis Rakyat (People’s Artists) in Yogyakarta. Hendra was actively involved in the Indonesian revolution and in 1965, he was sent to prison for his political views. Hendra documented the people’s struggles during the Indonesian revolution and Dapur Umum dan Para Pejuang is one such description of their struggles. Dapur Umum dan Para Pejuang which translates to Common Kitchen and Rebels, depicts the sufferings and coming together of the Indonesian people where food was scarce. The rebels were fighting for the rights of Indonesian for their independence from the Dutch. Despite their independence in 1945, it was not recognised by the Dutch which led to the Indonesian revolution and finally resolved in 1949. Hendra’s people are never passive victims of their faith; they are always depicted as active subjects. He took the daily lives of people subjects for his paintings and captured them movingly on canvas in his inimitable style. Though Hendra’s art was, from the very beginning focused towards celebrating common people and their struggle that depicts his deep feeling and irony inspiring perspective of life’s most fundamental issue: freedom and hunger, Hendra also love the land and paint some in his several themes. Hendra later paintings are melancholic and emotional as a result of the hardship that he experienced during his thirteen years in Bandung Kebon Waru prison. During his imprisoned time he painted some of his most dreamlike, vibrant and emotional works. He illustrates the sadness and the mystery in a brighter, more saturated, expressionistic and abstract. Hendra Gunawan is undoubtedly one of the Indonesia’s greatest pioneers of modern art and was considered to be one of the best and most versatile painters in Indonesia.

Willem Dooijewaard Willem Dooijewaard was born in Amsterdam in 1892 where he studied arts as a student of the applied art school in Amsterdam. Together with his brother and fellow of the artist Jaap Dooijewaard, Willem Dooijewaard lived in Amsterdam till 1913, than Sumatra and Bali (Indonesia), Peking, Mongolia (China), Japan, the South of France and, after 1933, he moved back to Blaricum, Holland. He painted in an impressionistic manner figures, portraits, landscapes etc. Willem Dooijewaard had a solo exhibition in the Singer Museum Laren. Willem’s paintings are in the collection of the Singer Museum Laren and the Stedelijk van Abbemuseum, Netherlands. Willem was a great adventurer who travelled to Japan, where he often painted Geishas, and crossed the Gobi desert and Tibetan highlands on horseback and foot when it was truly frightening. He arrived in Bali in the early 1920’s, settled for a while and returned often before the Indonesian Independence. His modern figurative paintings of dancers are notable for their strong lines and exotic subjects. He was unwilling to sweeten the power of his vision. The resulting muscular Legong dancers and figures seem almost agonized, especially when compared to the more refined aesthetics of Hofker and Bonnet, whom he knew well.

Adrian-Jean Le Mayeur de Merpres was born in Brussels with noble ties to the Belgium royal family. Le Mayeur was keen to become an artist at an early age but was persuaded by his father, an artist himself, to complete his studies. Le Mayeur graduated as a civil engineer but soon devoted himself to painting. Inspired by the Impressionist movement in Europe, Le Mayeur’s works were executed with bold free flowing strokes using bright gay colours. Le Mayeur was an ardent traveler who travelled Europe and Asia capturing the sunlight and grandiose sights from his travels on canvas. This painting, Les Tuilleries, was done when Le Mayeur visited Paris, capturing the magnificence of the Les Tuilleries in his Impressionist manner. In 1932, Le Mayeur landed in Indonesia where he was drawn especially to the Balinese culture. Le Mayeur instantly fell in love with the Balinese people, traditions, dances, and the tropical sunlight which surrounded him and settled down in Bali, later marrying his model and Balinese dancer, Ni Pollok. Le Mayeur continued to capture the grace and beauty of Balinese culture and his works are still preserved in his house, which has since been converted into the La Mayeur Museum, Bali, Indonesia.

Liu Li Guo Liu Li Guo graduated from the fine arts department of Beijing’s National Theatre Institute in 1991 and currently lives and works in Beijing, China. Liu is an example of the Chinese style and trend we call “Gaudy Art”, a school of thought whose subscribers often make use of pastiche in their illustration of the vulgarity of contemporary society. The substance of Liu Li Guo’s works are a reflection of a consumer society. Whether it is a sculpture or one of his beautiful avant-garde paintings, everything is materially opulent, dripping with sensuality, abundance & creativity. Liu has exhibited in numerous painting exhibitions in (Paris) France, New York (USA), Basel (Switzerland), Madrid (Spain), Brussels (Belgium), Tokyo (Japan), and Beijing (China).

Xu Beihong is a Chinese artist par excellence. Xu was one of the first Chinese artists to articulate the need for artistic expressions that reflected a new modern China at the beginning of the 20th century. Having studied at the Ecole Nationale Superieure des Beaux-Arts in Paris, Xu was exposed to oil paintings and Western analytical techniques in which he incorporated with Chinese ink techniques to redefine Chinese art. In 1933, Xu organized an exhibition of modern Chinese painting which traveled to Germany, France, Italy, Belgium, and the Soviet Union. Xu enjoyed massive support from art collectors across Asia and in the years1939 to 1941, he held solo exhibitions in India, Singapore, and Malaysia to help raise funds for the war relief efforts in China. Xu served as the President of the Central Academy of Fine Arts and Chairman of the Chinese Artists Association. Xu died of a stroke in 1953 and after his death, the Xu Beihong Memorial Museum was established in his house in Beijing.

Popo Iskandar graduated from the University of Indonesian and Bandung Institute of Technology (ITB). Popo Iskandar started painting in 1944, and is known not just as an artist, but an art observer and writer as well. Popo Iskandar has participated in many international exhibitions and in 1980, he was received an award from the Indonesian government for his contribution to arts. Another distinctly unique subject of Popo Iskandar’s paintings besides his rendition of the feline, are that of his roosters. Popo began the study of this subject in 1974 and observed that the rooster experienced several steps of expression, much the same as the five steps for the cat. Popo was inspired by the rooster as it was an object close to his surroundings and often overlooked by many. For Popo’s depiction of the rooster, he looked to another traditional Indonesian culture, Wayang Kulit, or shadow play. The artistic qualities of Wayang Kulit enabled Popo’s roosters to reflect a special artistic and esthetic manifestation as the rooster prepares to take off and dart out of the way. Popo’s use of minimal colours is not due to the lack of tools or materials, but rather his concept reflecting his intellectuality and mastery of the subject matter.

Widayat Widayat studied at the Indonesian Fine Art Academy (ASRI), Yogyakarta, where he became known as a lecturer of the Indonesian Institute of Fine Arts (ISI) Yogyakarta as well as a prominent artist. Since 1950 to 2002, Widayat participated in numerous art exhibitions in Indonesia as well as internationally, in countries such as Singapore, Thailand, Japan, Hong Kong, Netherlands, Italy, United States, and Australia. Widayat is said to be a maestro after Affandi, as published in the book “Educator and Painter” by ISI Yogyakarta in 1988. Widayat was also a revolutionary artist, and master of gardening and graphics arts. Widayat was the first artist whose exhibition was largely exhibited in the Singapore Art Museum, one of the most important museums in Southeast Asia on September 2007 and it was held for the duration of two months. According to Prof. Soedarso Sp MA, Widayat’s artistic works can be levelled with the works of Henri Rousseau (a France surrealist artist) who has been his great inspiration. Widayat’s works show an immense variety of stories about nature, life, myths, and rituals. They are rich in content, texture, and technique. Widayat’s preference for the simplification and distortion of natural forms had a profound influence on many Indonesian artists. His magic decorative style is a personal visual language mostly derived from folk motifs. He focuses on inner structure rather that outward appearance. The re-petition of basic elements are order with an underlying rhythm to create movement. The artist’s works encompass all of his varied experiences as soldier, student, teacher, and religious family man. Flora and fauna, religion and mythology, masks and portraits, and daily life all are parts of his fantasy world.

In 2002 Raduan was awarded the Pahang State Foundation Scholarship for his and Masters in Fine Art (painting) from the University of Wolverhampton, UK and in 2007 was once again the recipient of the state scholarship for his Masters in Fine Art (printmaking) from the Camberwell School of Art, UK. Raduan Man laboriously incorporates both art disciplines for his works by intricately carving out wood blocks and transposing the images on to canvas. The use of canvas as oppose to paper gives Raduan a sturdier material to work with, enabling him the room for experimentation to form the artistic statement which has shaped him today. Layers of blocks are imprinted, with each block contributing its unique characteristic which gives depth and complexities to Raduan’s work. Raduan has participated in over 30 group exhibitions and has held 7 solo exhibitions including Fresh Markings, NN Gallery, Kuala Lumpur (2003), Beyond Print – Raduan Man, Gallery Chandran, Kuala Lumpur (2009), and Living Metals, Purple Houz Fine Arts, Petaling Jaya (2012). 拉都安·曼先是在马来西亚玛拉工艺大学接受美术教育,后来领取国家奖学金到英国,取得 纯美术硕士学位。拉都安的创作风格是把木刻和绘画融合为一体,创立了强烈的个人画风。

Lee was a successful commercial artist before he engaged as a full time artist in 1941. Lee arrived at Singapore at young age then later moved to Jakarta, Indonesia where his successful exhibitions in Indonesia earned him a fast growing reputation.

He used oil on canvas and hardboard, pastel and watercolour on paper, and pen and ink on cardboard. His works combined Oriental and Western concept in his oeuvre. An exceptional aspect of Lee’s art was his great intense in creating a personal expression through observation of life and nature surrounds him. This is because as a youth he loved to observe the different life habits of various animals and thoroughly capturing their essential traits, was able to render them onto canvas vividly. In Lee’s paintings, light is of prime importance and the subjects are consistently bathed in a luminous glow as presented Goldfish. The background, unlike the flat, void spaces of Chinese paintings, is likewise illuminated by an almost mysterious glow of white sunlight. Therefore the goldfish, reflecting the sun’s radiance, seem also to be lit from the back, creating the effect of “glowing silhouettes”. Lee Man Fong died in 1988 and is dearly remembered as a vigorous artist who harmoniously blended both western and oriental techniques. 045 LEE MAN FONG (b. Canton, China 1913 – d.

Ugo’s journey of painting continues until today. He does not care about forms, lines, composition, techniques, or any -ism within the fine art world. He paints using any medium with whatever techniques. He does not need themes, contents or messages when expressing his ideas. Whatever he paints he paint it with honest and becomes the medium that channels the feeling without hesitation. As an individual artist who is looking for meaning through imagery symbolism, Ugo’s scratchy paint shows his indeterminate sign and poetic upon his self consciousness. His rough scratches never recognized anything nor reach into form perfections and Ugo’s horizontal lines sometimes go beyond his conscious and offer not only form but also meaningful message.

Walter Furlan started to work in a furnace called “VAMSA” very early where he apprenticed from one of the most famous glass masters on the island, Romano Tosi.Towards the end of the second world war, he worked in the furnace ‘Gino Cenedese’, where he met Alfredo Barbini along with the old masters from Vamsa. During this period, Walter Furlan learnt the particular technique called ‘a massello’, a technique to shape a quantity of glass that was not blown, and in 1963, he began to exhibit his works of art in the official Glass Display on Murano Island sponsored by the Venetian Institute for Work and later on in Arts and Crafts Exhibition in Reggio, Calabria. The fascinating artistic work of Picasso expressed in Furlan’s glass sculptures is demonstrated by the experience acquired during his periods of work with the old masters. He has interpreted Picasso’s paintings during his Cubic Period and has given them a 3rd dimension. Each sculpture is hand-crafted and signed, the glass welded to remove fractures making it robust and able to refract the light beautifully. The colors are vivid and the work is profoundly dimensional. In fact what greater accolade is there in that Picasso gave license to Walter Furlan to carry on using his name after his death in 1973.

Oil on canvas: 100 x 100 cm Signed and dated, lower left: ‘04

Dinh Dung’s inspiration comes from the folk traditions, especially the stage costumes for these colourful festivals. His paintings are characterized by strongly contrasting colorfields in pure hues and intensity. During the early eighties his work became increasingly distinctive and admired with several exhibitions in Hanoi. However it was in 1998 Dinh Dung truly made his mark with a solo exhibition in Paris, France. “Subject to the artist is nothing but a reason to express his own ideas in painting” Dinh Dung was quoted then, “a way of looking at things, then expounding them with the painter’s brush, color and composition”. His favourite colors those found most commonly in folk paintings: red, black, blue, green, purple and yellow. His paintings are bright and rich in poetical imagery, revealing an optimistic point of view, characteristic for his personal works and reflecting his outlook on life. His paintings both inherit the traditions of classical Oriental folk paintings, yet yield a surprisingly modernistic sense of feeling and expression. Dinh Dung has had numerous exhibitions and his works are included in collections in Europe, Asia, United States, and Japan.

After moving to Singapore in 1948, Chen Wen Hsi proceeded to teach at the Chinese High School (1914-1968) and then the Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts (1951-1959). As an artist, Chen Wen Hsi actively participated in several exhibitions outside Singapore which incidentally promoted Singapore. Among the many awards he has received are the Public Service Star (1964), a Gold Medal by the National Museum of History, Taiwan (1980), the first recipient of the ASEAN Cultural and Communication Award for outstanding artists (1987), and an honorary doctorate from the National University of Singapore. Chen Wen Hsi is Singapore’s pioneer artist that combines Chinese and Western techniques in his semi abstract work. His constant eagerness to strive for something new led him to learn finger painting, a technique that dates back from the Tang Dynasty. Ducks by The River is a prime example of Chen Wen Hsi’s combination of both Chinese and Western techniques. This semi abstract painting of ducks is painted with broad strokes using minimal contrasting colours was published in Chen Wen Hsi’s Retrospective published by the Taipei Fine Arts Museum in 1990. Although undated, it is likely that this work was completed in the late 1980’s as the highly abbreviated inscription written by Chen with his fingers, is typical of his works of that period.

MASTERPIECE FINE ART - HONG KONG

Born in 1971 in Chiang Mai, Navin Rawanchaikul is a Thai artist whose ancestral roots are from the Hindu-Punjabi communities of present day Pakistan. Questioning modern systems of artistic creation and presentation, Rawanchaikul has developed a unique and vast body of work that relies heavily on team spirit and collaboration, and is often produced under the banner of Navin Production, a studio he founded in 1994. Seeking better and more visible ways to introduce art into the lives of everyday people, in 1995 he initiated his landmark project Navin Gallery Bangkok, in which an ordinary Bangkok taxicab was transformed into a mobile art gallery. Its great success prompted several versions of the Taxi Gallery to be created around the world, including in Sydney, London, Bonn and New York. With his international profile substantially raised, Rawanchaikul began to engage in a process of exploring the ongoing negotiation between local circumstances and unavoidable globalisation. The artist is best known for dynamic art practices that involve direct public interventions, social commentary, and an innovative style of integrating community or individual experiences into eccentric fictional tales featuring recurring characters. Over the years, his oeuvre has grown to encompass a broad array of media, including performances, billboards, films, comics, games, merchandise and cocktails.

Umberto Mariani graduated from the Accademia di Brera under Achille Funi with honors. Today he lives and works in Milan, Italy, and has become the subject of academic essays by virtually every critic in Italy. Umberto Mariani has had several gallery and museum exhibitions, including at the Opera Gallery, Hong Kong and at the Opera Gallery, Monaco. Umberto Mariani is a Post-War multimedia artist whose work exudes a special affinity to the folds of textiles. Though he studied the masters of the Romantic period and was surrounded by the emerging movements of Pop Art and Surrealism, the most profound influences he drew were from the Classical Greek statues that he grew up with on the streets of Italy. He picked up his first projects doing monumental narrative work for the St. Peter’s Basilica in Vatican as well as mosaics and frescos for the St. Antony Sanctuary in Rome during the 60s, and during the 70s was widely exhibited in Europe at institutions such as the Palais des Beaux Arts in Brussels and the Musée d’Art Moderne in Paris. Best known for his complex draperies on irregular-shaped canvases, his work explores illusions of light and shadow created within the folds of fabric. New multidimensional canvas works combine intricate drapery over elusive lead sheets (form of metal) where the fabric both serves to conceal a mysterious object beneath, while also evoking its presence.

The presentation of trees is more stylized and abstracted to the point of being decorative. The combination of the unusual green and blue color is quite actually typical of the artist’s painting.

Chen Wen Hsi 陈文希 Natural world from young, he had long delighted in observing the birds and animals around his home. Surrounded by rice fields and mandarin orange groves, his family reared chickens, geese, ducks and even kept a pair of peacocks. Gibbon paintings Within Chen's many thematic interests, his gibbon paintings stand out. His early paintings were noted for their careful attention to detail and sensitive rendering. His later depictions were lauded for their liveliness and abstract beauty. Gibbons, monkeys and apes (all called yuan in Chinese) have long been a popular subject with scholar-artists. As the calls of gibbons evoke a sense of remoteness and are associated with the high inaccessible cliffs among which they live, they often serve to symbolise for the literati desire for a less worldly existence. In a similar manner, Chen's Fishes and Carps also surprise and delight, from the fishes' quizzical expressions to the school of carps that cascades unexpectedly down one side of the painting.

Upon his return, he worked at the Asian Art Museum, University of Malaya and was later appointed as Director of Cultural Centre, University of Malaya in 1979. He was appointed as Director of the Balai Visual Negara between 1983 and 1991. Throughout his career, the late Datuk Syed received numerous prestigious awards Ahli Mangku Negara (1969); Kesatria Mangku Negara (1983); ASEAN Cultural Award - Visual Art (1987), and in 1995, he was awarded the National Art Award; subsequently, the Panglima Jasa Negara in 1996. Besides numerous group and solo exhibitions, Syed Ahmad Jamal also published several important art books namely Antara Rupa dan Jiwa (1992), Kunang-Kunang (1999) as well as references for exhibition catalogues. He is a prolific artist of excellence. He experimented with different artistic movements including impressionism, expressionism, and abstract expressionism. Datuk Syed’s paintings are mostly abstract and painted in a reductive manner which turned away from figuration and legible meanings. Within the context of Malaysia, he is considered the first artist who introduced abstract art through his work titled “Bait”, a masterpiece produced in 1959. In fact, it was a new monumental step for Malaysia’s art movement approaching to new form of expression. Here, the colours, line, form, and space work together weaving their own reality with a fanciful vision. This reflects Datuk Syed’s popular statement “Malaysian Art begins now!” (kesenian Malaysia bermula sekarang) is an important indicator to a new era of painting in modern Malaysia. The painting Endau Rompin features a combination of colours and forms to create powerful illusions of depth. Similar depictions can be seen in Datuk Syed’s book Kunang-Kunang. He mixed and applied paint with precision and control building texture with sweeping colour. The structure and brush strokes are imbued with the artist’s self-consciousness where colours and forms were utilised as elements of art to fuel the inspiration from forestry. Flowing layers of blue and green creates an interaction between abstract trees forms and surrounding forests. In the painting Endau Rompin, the final composition and artistic expression has reached its higher degree of excellence. 069 SYED AHMAD JAMAL, DATUK (b.

Sunaryo studied arts at the Bandung Institute of Technology (ITB) in 1969 and continued his development by taking a tedious course of marble carving for 7 months at Carrara, Italy in 1975. On his return to Indonesia, Sunarya joined the Decenta group which was reacting against the more traditional “Bandung school” and was pioneering abstract art which was viewed generally as more Westernized than other schools of thought at the time. Artists in Decenta were trying to reprocess the visual elements of Indonesia’s traditional arts in search of “local colours and their cultural roots,” Sunaryo recalled. Sunaryo is an artist who mixes figurative themes with abstract backgrounds using very refined color palette and graceful lines that shows great technical mastery. Sunaryo paints interesting aspects of contemporary life which renders his viewer to the global problem of pollution and preservation of nature. There are several inspirational elements in is work, and nature and the environment are key themes. Sunaryo loves to use natural materials such as rattan, grass, bamboo, jute, canvas, nets and fibers as his mediums and his abstract works are dominated with line and form with the use of white, brown, grey and black colours. Sunaryo is not an artist who is confined to only paintings and has produced graphics, ceramics, sculptures and installations as well. MASTERPIECE FINE ART - HONG KONG

Lee U Fan Painter, sculptor, writer, and philosopher Lee Ufan came to prominence in the late 1960s as one of the major theoretical and practical proponents of the avant-garde Mono-ha (Object School) group. The Mono-ha school of thought was Japan’s first contemporary art movement to gain international recognition. It rejected Western notions of representation, focusing on the relationships of materials and perceptions rather than on expression or intervention. The artists of Mono-ha present works made of raw physical materials that have barely been manipulated. From Point, is the result of Lee’s study between the relationship of space. Maximizing space, From Point is a circular painting with increasing intensity of brushstrokes. This relationship between space lies at the heart of Lee practice. Lee Ufan was born on June 24th, 1936, in Kyongnam, South Korea. He studied calligraphy, poetry and painting at the College of Kyongnam and the University of Seoul. Lee has exhibited in some of the most prominent walls around, having participated in exhibitions in Palace of Versailles, Paris, France (2014), Guggenheim Museum, New York, United States (2011), Royal Museums of Fine Arts of Belgium, Brussels (2009), Yokohama Museum of Art, Japan (2005), Musée d’Art Moderne de Saint-Etienne Métropole, France (2005), Samsung Museum of Modern Art, Seoul, South Korea (2003), Kunstmuseum Bonn, Germany (2001), Galerie Nationale du Jeu de Paume, Paris (1997), and the National Museum of Contemporary Art, Seoul, South Korea (1994). Lee was awarded the Praemium Imperiale for painting in 2001 and the UNESCO Prize in 2000.

Chen Wen Hsi

陈文希

Born in Baigong, from the province of Guangdong, Chen Wen Hsi studied art at the Xinhua College of Art in Shanghai where he was thought by renowned artists such as Pan Tianshou. After moving to Singapore in 1948, Chen Wen Hsi proceeded to teach at the Chinese High School (1914-1968) and then the Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts (1951-1959). As an artist, Chen Wen Hsi actively participated in several exhibitions outside Singapore which incidentally promoted Singapore. Among the many awards he has received are the Public Service Star (1964), a Gold Medal by the National Museum of History, Taiwan (1980), the first recipient of the ASEAN Cultural and Communication Award for outstanding artists (1987), and an honorary doctorate from the National University of Singapore. Chen Wen Hsi is Singapore’s pioneer artist that combines Chinese and Western techniques in his semi abstract work. His constant eagerness to strive for something new led him to learn finger painting, a technique that dates back from the Tang Dynasty. This drawing style has enabled him to produce unpredictable broken strokes on paper. Chen Wen Hsi is renowned for his skills in depicting animals, of which it is the gibbons that he is most associated with. It is Chen Wen Hsi’s mastery of the gibbons that led it to be commemorated on the 50 Singapore Dollars note. 075 CHEN WEN HSI 陈文希 (b. Baigong, China 1906 – d.

Auke Cornelis Sonnega An artist’s quest to find inspiration and spiritual contentment can take him on a long voyage far away from home. Such was the journey for Dutch artist Auke Cornelis Sonnega. Born in Leeuwarden and educated at the Kunstnijverheidsschool in Amsterdam (School of Arts and Crafts), Sonnega first set foot on Indonesian soil when he arrived in Batavia in 1935. He did his paintings in Parapat and Medan, North Sumatra, and Bali. He moved to Bali, which became a great source of inspiration for his painting. After the war settled in Ubud in fellow artist Bonnet’s old studio in Puri Kaleran and dedicated himself solely to painting. His style is fresh and unique, clearly influenced by his designer training and background. It is very influenced by Art Deco and often graphic, however, his larger canvases often transcend these limitations and can even be thought to have a mystical impact. He also made many portraits, usually of doe eyed young men (he was in the words of a long time Ubud expatriate euphemism a member of the “club”). These are very stylized and use a brightpalate with strong outlining of his subjects. Sonnega, like Bonnet, stayed in Bali until 1957 when he was forced to leave by the Indonesia authorities in the era of Confrontation.The painting becomes all the more poignant when this separation is considered – the immortalization of a reality that was to him a fulfillment of a dream. He returned to Holland in 1959 and died in Den Haag in 1963.

Gerard was an ardent traveler and traveled for months at a time where he established studious in Florence, Rome,Vienna, Budapest, Prague, and, together with his Japanese friend Léonard Tsuguharu Fujita, in Paris. During his career, Gerard exhibited his works of art internationally in countries such as the Netherlands, Japan, Singapore, USA, England, Holland, Sweden, Norway, France, and Switzerland. In his works he has always attempted to represent the light, colour, and the simple joy of life that impregnates the scenes and his paintings had a menacing, even macabre quality to them, due to the dramatic light, a result of chiaroscuro. Gerard probably picked this up from Caravaggio (the inventor of chiaroscuro), whose works and those of other Old Masters, he had studied in Rome during his 1928 study tour as can be seen from the works reproduced, he has a bold, vigorous style, applying his pigments with quick strokes of the palette knife. Gerard was an ardent traveler, and captured the scenes of his travels in Europe, North Africa, Japan, and Indonesia where Gerard’s ability to capture light earned him a reputation as “The Wizard of Light” by the press.

Srihadi Soedarsono Srihadi Soedarsono is one of the most gifted-living artists in Indonesia. Srihadi’s talent of portraying inner qualities is reflected not only in his works of ethnic dances, but also in his paintings of still objects such as Borobudur, the largest Buddhist temple in the world, constructed in the 8th century. During his career, Srihadi followed the Bandung style of cubism that was characterized by a kaleidoscopic use of colours and experimented with abstraction as he extensively researched the best method to portray not only subjects, but their essence as well. Srihadi’s Borobudur is the result of his extensive research. Painted in abstraction with his personal lyrical expressionistic style, Borobudur is depicted as a monument composed primarily in black. Srihadi’s abstraction can be seen through the strong strokes on the temple walls combined with the gentle sweep on the sky and earth that present the distinctive spiritual silence. Srihadi considers the artistic architectural form of Borobudur set in the surrounding natural environment as evidence that religious behavior and attitudes are the highest of human values. Srihadi’s Borobudur serves as a cultural text and embodiment of human religiosity and is testament of the great monument and gifted artist.

Le Pho Le Pho’s is considered as one of the “Masters” of twentieth century Vietnamese art. Through the years 1928 to 1938, Le Pho experimented with various mediums and styles from lacquer to oil on canvas and silk. The spirit of Le Pho’s work of shows in the radiance and simplicity of refined silk expressing the Sinhanga tradition that evolved in Japan in the early 20th century. The work of Le Pho is not a compromise between Vietnamese art, of Chinese origin, and Western art but is a fusion of two mentalities, two worlds, and two continents. Flowers are probably the most favorite subject in Le Pho’s painting.The present lot, Les Primaveres, is one such example of Le Pho’s unique style. The flowers were beautifully arranged in a vase. The sharpness and bright scene at the background is blended perfectly with the colorful flowers that blossomed out from the vases. This impressive painting probably revealed the romantic mood the painter wanted to achieve.

Dullah studied painting under Affandi and Sudjojono but soon developed a distinctive style of naturalism on his own. Dullah was one of the founders of HBS –Surakarta Cultural Community where he was selected to edit the book of former President Soekarno’s Private Collection of Indonesian Art (Volume I & II) and was appointed to care and curate for the state art collection. Dullah held numerous art exhibitions in Indonesia and abroad and in 1988, his work was included in the Art of Bali exhibition held at the East West Center, Honolulu, Hawaii, United States. In the 1960’s Dullah developed a technique for the use of oil paints that was to become his trademark. At age 70, Dullah built his museum, now a cultural landmark, as his dedication to a love of the arts over a creative lifetime and today his works can be viewed in the Dullah Museum in Solo, Indonesia. Dullah’s painting stands out uniquely. His technique, brush stroke, observation, point of view, treatment of colour and mastery of his subjects make him stand out on his own. His mastery of the skills necessary to paint figure after realistic figure convinces of the reality of his scenes of individuals and groups of people in their setting. The skilled reproduction of skin tone and the mastery of the depiction of drapery, posture and gesture makes his paintings extremely convincing. Dullah’s choices of colour ranged between ocher to deep brown, with nuances of the play of yellow, green, turquoise, orange and maroon, become symbolic of his own character.

Born during the Cultural Revolution, the Luo brothers grew up in a China what was gradually changing as China began to open her doors and Western influences became intertwined with traditional Chinese culture. Luo Weidong attended the Gaungxi Art College, Luo Weiguo attended the Guangzhou Academy of Fine Arts and Luo Weibing graduated from the College of Art & Design in Beijing. The Luo brothers began to collaborate in 1986 as they captured the Westernizing China on canvas. The Luo brothers began incorporating both traditional Chinese and Western consumerism in their work where their new body of work offers a glimpse of a prosperous future. As Li Xianting, art critic and curator, explains “…artists strove to infuse their works with the taste of China’s peasantry for gaudy objects, either through their use of colour or popular images, to raise awareness that the essence of peasant taste is what lies at the base of today’s consumerism.” The Luo Brothers has gained international recognition and their work has been exhibited in the 24th Sao Paulo Biennale (1998), Fukuoka Art Museum Collection Exhibition (1999), Mahjong: Contemporary Chinese Art from the Sigg Collection at the Kunstmuseum Bern & Hamburger Kunsthalle (2005/2006). 羅衛東、羅衛國、羅衛兵合稱羅氏兄弟,他們以漆酯製作紙張、漆木板、雕刻木板及雕像作品,媚俗卻又帶點雜亂。 他們的作品具東方意味,多用大光燈、紅燈籠等元素,令人憶及中菜館或中國城市尤其常見的節日景象。此外,他們 的農民手工藝作品融合彩色花朵及壯胖的嬰孩,意味豐獲與成就。三兄弟以此為起點,在作品內加入國內無處不在的 新興消費主義,再滲入其出生年代──即文化大革命時期──的標記。 090 LUO BROTHERS 罗氏兄弟 (b.

He painted in an impressionistic manner figures, portraits, landscapes etc. Willem Dooijewaard had a solo exhibition in the Singer Museum Laren. Willem’s paintings are in the collection of the Singer Museum Laren and the Stedelijk van Abbemuseum, Netherlands. Willem was a great adventurer who travelled to Japan, where he often painted Geishas, and crossed the Gobi desert and Tibetan highlands on horseback and foot when it was truly frightening. He arrived in Bali in the early 1920’s, settled for a while and returned often before the Indonesian Independence. His modern figurative paintings of dancers are notable for their strong lines and exotic subjects. He was unwilling to sweeten the power of his vision. The resulting muscular Legong dancers and figures seem almost agonized, especially when compared to the more refined aesthetics of Hofker and Bonnet, whom he knew well.

Chen Wen Hsi 陈文希 Life Another vital current through Chen’s practice was his insistence on close observation of nature and a solid foundation in drawing from life or life drawing (xiesheng). Chen painted both Western and Chinese paintings. His Western-style works in the early 1950s were realistic depictions infused with post-impressionistic and expressionistic elements. Chen’s Western painting style subsequently evolved, moving from simplified forms and strong colours to cubism, and later abstraction. Besides using oil paints for his Western artworks, Chen also experimented with acrylic and viscous paints as well as sand on canvas. Surrounded with natural landscape Chen’s often painted what he saw.The field of calabash (bottle gourd) a tropical vine grown for its fruit, which can either be harvested young and used as a vegetable, or harvested mature, dried, and used as a bottle has captured Chen’s attention. This simple plant has allowed him to explore his great mastery in combining colors of yellow and black ink in simple forms. Every subject he paints, whether lotuses, gibbons, egrets, monkeys, squirrels, birds, or flowers and trees, is palpably vibrant.

Xiao Hong’s recent works on Intellectual Youth Series combines the elements of contemporary and tradition onto one canvas. With portrait of an Intellectual Youth as the main subject of his painting, one can immediately identify with his subject – how China is now full of young, talented and capable youth to bring it to the next level of development. However, it is his use of scenes and fragments of reality from the past which is rather unique. He turns these scenes and fragments of reality into marks on the skin of a human face, treating them like moles or freckles in a portrait, moulding them to the undulating contours of facial structure. Now, the combination of the two implores upon us a message that one should always have a root in traditions and the past. MASTERPIECE FINE ART - HONG KONG

Popo Iskandar graduated from the University of Indonesian and Bandung Institute of Technology (ITB). Popo Iskandar started painting in 1944, and is known not just as an artist, but an art observer and writer as well. Popo Iskandar has participated in many international exhibitions and in 1980, he was received an award from the Indonesian government for his contribution to arts. Another distinctly unique subject of Popo Iskandar’s paintings besides his rendition of the feline, are that of his roosters. Popo began the study of this subject in 1974 and observed that the rooster experienced several steps of expression, much the same as the five steps for the cat. Popo was inspired by the rooster as it was an object close to his surroundings and often overlooked by many. For Popo’s depiction of the rooster, he looked to another traditional Indonesian culture, Wayang Kulit, or shadow play. The artistic qualities of Wayang Kulit enabled Popo’s roosters to reflect a special artistic and esthetic manifestation as the rooster prepares to take off and dart out of the way. Popo’s use of minimal colours is not due to the lack of tools or materials, but rather his concept reflecting his intellectuality and mastery of the subject matter.

Zeng Chuanxing was born in Longchang County, Sichuan Province, in 1974. He majored in oil painting at the Central University for Nationalities from 1995 to 1998. Having grown up among ethnic groups, Zeng is familiar with their life and has developed strong feelings towards them. Minority girls are a major theme of Zeng's paintings. Zeng is especially fond of classical realism; a means through which he believes can thoroughly and delicately express his feelings. He stresses careful depiction of his characters' eyes and hands, because he feels that eyes and hands vividly and truly reflect a human being's soul. Characters in his works are often quiet and melancholy, a feeling projected by the brown or greyish blue backgrounds. Zeng is expert at passing on his feelings and attitudes towards life through the tone of colors. Zeng's style is a kind of cold abstractionism for realistic paintings.

After moving to Singapore in 1948, Chen Wen Hsi proceeded to teach at the Chinese High School (19141968) and then the Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts (1951-1959). As an artist, Chen Wen Hsi actively participated in several exhibitions outside Singapore which incidentally promoted Singapore. Among the many awards he has received are the Public Service Star (1964), a Gold Medal by the National Museum of History, Taiwan (1980), the first recipient of the ASEAN Cultural and Communication Award for outstanding artists (1987), and an honorary doctorate from the National University of Singapore. Chen Wen Hsi is Singapore’s pioneer artist that combines Chinese and Western techniques in his semi abstract work. His constant eagerness to strive for something new led him to learn finger painting, a technique that dates back from the Tang Dynasty. This drawing style has enabled him to produce unpredictable broken strokes on paper. Chen Wen Hsi is renowned for his skills in depicting animals, of which it is the gibbons that he is most associated with. It is Chen Wen Hsi’s mastery of the gibbons that led it to be commemorated on the 50 Singapore Dollars note. 120 CHEN WEN HSI (b. Baigong, China 1906 – d.

Born during the Cultural Revolution, the Luo brothers grew up in a China what was gradually changing as China began to open her doors and Western influences became intertwined with traditional Chinese culture. Luo Weidong attended the Gaungxi Art College, Luo Weiguo attended the Guangzhou Academy of Fine Arts and Luo Weibing graduated from the College of Art & Design in Beijing. The Luo brothers began to collaborate in 1986 as they captured the Westernizing China on canvas. The Luo brothers began incorporating both traditional Chinese and Western consumerism in their work where their new body of work offers a glimpse of a prosperous future. As Li Xianting, art critic and curator, explains “…artists strove to infuse their works with the taste of China’s peasantry for gaudy objects, either through their use of colour or popular images, to raise awareness that the essence of peasant taste is what lies at the base of today’s consumerism.” The Luo Brothers has gained international recognition and their work has been exhibited in the 24th Sao Paulo Biennale (1998), Fukuoka Art Museum Collection Exhibition (1999), Mahjong: Contemporary Chinese Art from the Sigg Collection at the Kunstmuseum Bern & Hamburger Kunsthalle (2005/2006). 羅衛東、羅衛國、羅衛兵合稱羅氏兄弟,他們以漆酯製作紙張、漆木板、雕刻木板及雕像作 品,媚俗卻又帶點雜亂。 他們的作品具東方意味,多用大光燈、紅燈籠等元素,令人憶及中菜 館或中國城市尤其常見的節日景象。此外,他們 的農民手工藝作品融合彩色花朵及壯胖的嬰 孩,意味豐獲與成就。三兄弟以此為起點,在作品內加入國內無處不在的 新興消費主義,再滲 入其出生年代──即文化大革命時期──的標記。

Adrien Jean Le Mayeur De Merpres Adrian-Jean Le Mayeur de Merpres was born in Brussels with noble ties to the Belgium royal family. Le Mayeur was keen to become an artist at an early age but was persuaded by his father, an artist himself, to complete his studies. Le Mayeur graduated as a civil engineer but soon devoted himself to painting. Inspired by the Impressionist movement in Europe, Le Mayeur’s works were executed with bold free flowing strokes using bright gay colours. Le Mayeur was an ardent traveler who travelled Europe and Asia capturing the sunlight and grandiose sights from his travels on canvas. In 1932, Le Mayeur landed in Indonesia where he was drawn especially to the Balinese culture. Le Mayeur instantly fell in love with the Balinese people, traditions, dances, and the tropical sunlight which surrounded him and settled down in Bali, later marrying his model and Balinese dancer, Ni Pollok. Le Mayeur continued to capture the grace and beauty of Balinese culture and his works are still preserved in his house, which has since been converted into the La Mayeur Museum, Bali, Indonesia.

It is already widely known how Heri Dono works with various visual resources and methods known in the realm of popular culture – coming from both foreign and local cultural institutions – ranging from comics, animation film, wayang puppetry, and through various skills in material processing, craft, performing art, also popular music – he works on and presents in his various art works. Many people see that Heri Dono’s painting has eventually come to the phase of “just repeating things”. Perhaps such judgment comes because people do not try to know and comprehend the central idea that provides the main energy driving Heri Dono to keep painting. The central idea is easily identifiable from Heri Dono’s own remark on “why he paints” or “what painting means” to him as an artist. His painting is like a journal on various issues. Being a journal, a diary, it may concern anything. But everything there is personal in nature. The way he paints, technically speaking, as well as his language of expression, maintain his characteristic hitherto known: Heri Dono’s “handwriting” and “idiolect”. The figures and beings filling the field of his canvas keep on traversing, somersaulting, their round eyes popping, mouths grinning or laughing or unclosed or opening widely to show protruding lines of teeth or canines. Those figures and various beings seem so familiar with violence. They are often present with weapons inserted here and there on their bodies.This is coupled with organs, or parts of the body, that can extend to reach and grab anything with pointed claws, or spurred heels. Heri Dono was awarded the UNESCO Prize for the International Art Biennale, Shanghai, China in 2000 and he was awarded for the 2nd Annual Enku Grand Awards, Gifu Prefectural Government, Japan in 2002.

Chuah Seow Keng Chuah Seow Keng is recognised as one of Malaysia’s leading artists and is known for his work on batik (a traditional fabric closely associated with Malaysian culture) and watercolour paintings. Chuah was awarded a scholarship to study at the Suddeutsche Kunststoff-Zentrum, Wurzburg, Germany in 1968 specialising in fiberglass sculptures. Chuah was first exposed to the art of batik painting by this father Dato’ Chuah Thean Teng, The Father of Batik Painting, who pioneered batik art in Malaysia. Chuah’s mastery of this medium was recognised early on and he was selected to demonstrate his batik skills at the International Freundschaftheim in Buckeburg, Germany. Batik is an especially difficult medium to work with as its thin fibers absorbs ink on contact, allowing no room for errors. In recognition of his artistic talents, two of Chuah’s batik paintings, ‘Rural Life’ and ‘Fish’, were selected by the United Nations International Children’s Funds (UNICEF) for their greeting cards in 1988, and in 1989, Chuah was awarded the Certificate of Excellence for Outstanding Achievement at the Artitudes 7th International Art Competition, New York, United States.

140 BASOEKI ABDULLAH (b. Solo, Indonesia 1915 – d.

Basoeki Abdullah is one of the most prominent Indonesian maestros in portrait paintings. The late artist was well-known for his realistic paintings. Besides painting of natural beauty and sensuous landscape, he is also noted for his portraits of beautiful women, as well as paintings of scenes from legends that are also tempered with the same lyrical and overly sensual treatment. His great fond of paintings women’s figure perhaps derived from his great interest in exploring the beauty of women that is attractive to paint in any way. The artist gain the public recognition after winning a painting competition held in conjunction with the Netherland’s Queen Juliana ascension to throne on 6 September 1948. There are painters who like to paint nudity. Nudity in art has generally reflected — with some exceptions — social standards of aesthetics, modesty and morality of their time in painting, sculpture and more recently in photography. At all times in human history, the human body has been one of the principal subjects for artists. It has been represented on prehistoric paintings and statutes and in all eras since. The male nude was more common in antiquity, especially in ancient Greece, but today the tendency is for the female nude body to be more highly regarded and represented. In Reclining Nude, Basoeki courageously paints a lady in her full entirety pushing Indonesian acceptance of nudity even further.

Pang Jiun Born to a family of rich background in various artistic influences, Pang Jun has developed an early pursuit of artistic career under the influences of his parents, Pang Xunqin and Qiu Ti, who were amongst the first generation of Chinese artists to receive art education abroad, studying respectively in France and Japan. Pang Jiun has developed a distinctive artistic style that exhibits a sophisticated synthesis of Western and Chinese artistic traditions Pang Jun graduated from the China Central Academy of Fine Arts in 1954 and attended the Beijing Fine Art Academy soon after. Pang was encouraged to paint in oil as demand from the foreigners in Beijing could increase in revenue for the nation. This made Pang one of the few artists who could paint during the Cultural Revolution without adhering to the Communist Party’s demand. In 1987, Pang moved to Taiwan, where he taught at the Taiwan University of Arts. Pang’s extensive experiences both as an artist and as an educator earned him a reputation for his paintings. His appearance in Cambridge’s coveted publication Who’s Who, where he also received a special award in recognition of his artistic achievements, further cemented his position as China’s leading artist. Pang Jun integrates the essence of Chinese ink paintings and the expressive elements of oil paintings to form his Oriental Humanist Expressionism. Exhibiting his works, Pang has held solo exhibitions such as The Art of Pang Jun, National Art Museum of China, Beijing (2008), Orient Civilization – Pang Jun Solo Exhibition, Istituto Santa Maria della Pieta, Calle della Pieta,Venice, Italy (2015), and The Greatest Master of Orient Expressionism – Pang Jun, The Ueno Royal Museum, Tokyo, Japan (2015).
