Christian de Laubadère’s painting A French artist Christian de Laubadere, who lives and works mainly in Shanghai where he takes most of his inspiration to create unusual and elegant paintings. The new collection of paintings of women’s head shows his unique ability to tell each time a different story. His influence of the Chinese culture is shown dramatically through his work. The female Chinese hairstyle is very uniform as the color and texture rarely differ from person to person. Christian de Laubadère’s heads of women could be seen as a representation of western and eastern cultures mixed together with softness and delicacy.
