Catalogue Note:
Using a close shot of the hilly relief, the drops of red and intersecting lines of this painting add vividness of the layering of mountains, reflecting Yu Chung-lin’s deep appreciation towards the Nature. Enhanced with the concept of collage, Yu tried to enhance the visual impact, bringing a new visual experience in ink paintings.
Yu Cheng-yao (1898-1933) began his art practice at the age of 56 and participated in exhibitions in the US for two years. In his retired life, he gained an accomplished fame in music research, thus becoming one of the
few literati who excelled in poems, calligraphy, paintings and music.
The paintings featured in this Sale are depicted with Yu's typical style and structure. Despite Yu's deviances with traditional painting practices, the mountainous characteristics carry the same idealistic qualities as traditional Chinese paintings.
