Lui Shou-Kwan: Shifting Landscapes
February 27 – April 27, 2024
Opening Reception: Tuesday, February 27 from 6-8pm
Alisan Fine Arts is delighted to announce Shifting Landscapes, a solo exhibition celebrating the art of pioneering ink artist Lui Shou-Kwan (1919-1975) at their newly opened gallery space on the Upper East Side. Lui’s first exhibition in New York presents transformative works from the artist’s career that bridged tradition and modernity while also sparking new dialogue in the international art community. Lui was a vanguard figure of the New Ink Movement in Hong Kong, a movement that reimagined the Chinese Ink tradition and flourished from the 1950s to 1970s. Extremely influential to the following generation of artists, Lui was instrumental in transforming traditional Chinese ink painting into a modern, global art form.
