Catalogue Note:
Su Causeway, West Lake is a cardinal example of the amalgamation of classical elements of the late Impressionism and the spiritual poetic quality and aesthetic philosophy of Chinese ink painting, the simultaneous incorporation of these sentiments results in the liberated and unrestrained lively aura of Pang Jiun's paintings. In essence, the Impressionist notion of instantaneity is transpired through the comprehension of a sense of time, as the painting captivates an instantaneous moment i n time that i s both nostalgic and modern simultaneously. The delicate movements and vibrations portrayed by the brushstrokes structuring the reflective shadow along the extremities of the two central sampans implies an air of lightness as the samples sways gently on the moving water, creating a scenery of peaceful quietude. Its spacial arrangement of the two sampans further guilds the viewers eyes towards to the leafy sprigs, brushes and tree in the background. The potent lines and simple figuration composed of a freehand style of calligraphic strokes and rhythms enhance the composition with the ethereal beauty of Western tradition further imbue by the employment of a painted-on seal mark that is Eastern in origin.
