SU Wong-shen
Taiwanese 1956
Born in Chiayi, Taiwan. Su Wong-shen currently works and lives in Kaohsiung. He graduated from the Fine Arts Department of Chinese Culture University. Su's first solo exhibition was held in the American Culture Center in Taipei. He held another solo exhibition in the Taipei Fine Arts Museum in 1988 and continued to exhibit extensively thereafter in both solo and group exhibitions. Su's early work in 1980s was abstract and it was only in the 1990s that he moved to more realistic work. Most of his recent works use dogs as a metaphor for social criticism. His work is found in the public collections of the Taipei Fine Arts Museum and the National Taiwan Museum of Fine Arts.
