Yan Pei-Ming
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Yan Pei-Ming is an chinese painter born in 1960 in Shanghai. Since 1982 he is living in France in Dijon. His most famous paintings are overdimensioned Mao portraits worked out in black and white or red and white. He is working with big brushes and his paintings are living from the fast given brush strokes which are structuring the picture space. He is mainly working on portraits, landscapes (places of crime) and his pictures have a narrative side. He exposed his work in the Biennale of Venise in 2003 and at the Sevilla Biennale in 2006 and many other exhibitions.
