Reception: November 3rd, 2010 (Wednesday), 6pm - 8pm
Tien Chang paints horses almost exclusively.
With minimal brush strokes, he freezes the vitality of these four-legged animals onto his works, regardless whether those horses are standing on guard or galloping in full vigour with flying manes and stretched out hooves. Chang's main interest is on capturing and depicting their supremacy.
Chang, originally from Taiwan, now works and resides in Toronto, Canada. He is now the vice-chairman of the Chinese Association and a member of the Ontario Chinese Artists Association. His works have been shown extensively in Canada and China.
On show in "Riding the Wind" are his latest works on paper and on canvas. Chang has refined the strokes that he uses to depict the horses to the minimal, especially in his ink works on paper. Despite the vibrant colours on the background, the strokes on his canvases are equally sparse and simplified. This has become his personal style.
With a strong western twist, Chang is fluent in Chinese ink painting and excels in Chinese calligraphy, poetry and seal carving. He will visit Hong Kong for the opening of his exhibition.
Riding The Wind exhibition starts on November 3rd, 2010 and goes on for three weeks.
