Seeking truth
Huang Binhong (1865-1955) traveled to Guangdong province and Hong Kong, in South China, several times seeking inspiration for his ink works. These paintings have returned to where they were conceived, in Shenzhen Art Museum, Guangdong, at Where Truth Resides, an exhibition highlighting Huang's creative dialogues with nature. Nearly 200 works are on show through to Dec 7, from the collection of Zhejiang Provincial Museum in Hangzhou where Huang spent most of his life.
Considered a pioneer of modern Chinese ink art, Huang drew from the country's diverse landscapes and followed the long-standing practice of learning from nature. At the same time, he sought to reform brushwork in landscape painting, developing a unique style that remains a subject of study for art historians and collectors.
