Guowu HUANG (China)

"Guowu is a great fellow, whose jovial and observant gaze caught my attention me when he first came to 55 rue de Bellechasse in September 2016. He then gave me his ink and watercolors’ works to see and I laid my eyes on sensitive, tender and playful works he created by succesfully toying with the codes and limits of the genre while perfectly mastering traditional techniques. The professor at the Guangdong Academy kept this flame of freedom, which is the hallmark of great artists. Come discover the variety of his work over the last thirty years, and maybe share my enthusiasm. We are waiting for you !"
