Renowned contemporary Chinese painter, oil painter and art educator.Born in a village in
Yixing, Jiangsu, in 1919. Graduated from National Arts Academy, Hangzhou, and went to
Paris to study at Ecole Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts in 1942. Between the 1950s and
1970s, Wu focused on oil landscapes in his exploration for oil painting with a Chinese flavor.
His aim was to borrow from the lively realism and the rich palette of European oil painting
while retaining the spirit and aesthetic ideals of traditional Chinese painting. Beginning from
the 1970s, he gradually shifted to Chinese painting and embarked on a revolution of Chinese
painting by using traditional Chinese materials for modern interpretations. Besides making
art, Wu was also a prolific writer and eloquent theorist whose aesthetic arguments about
abstract beauty, formal beauty, and "brush and ink equal zero" stirred up commotions in the
art world. In 2000, this national treasure of China was honored with Medaille des Arts et Lettres
by Academie des Beaux-Arts, l’Institut de France, to become the first Chinese national and the
first Asian to be thus recognized by the institute since its establishment two centuries ago.
