萧勤（b.1935） 1935年1月30日生于上海，四十年代末随家人移居台湾。他于1952年开始学画，1956年在台北参与创立东方
HSIAO CHIN 画会，与其他创会画家并称「八大响马」，锐意打破社会现实主义对艺术的束缚，从当代西方的形式实验
和个人表达寻找创作灵感。在接下来的创作生涯中，萧勤经常穿梭于欧美各大城市，现于台湾和意大利米
Lot 1614
兰两地生活和工作。近年，他于台中国立台湾美术馆、米兰三年展博物馆和布鲁塞尔皇家艺术学院举行过
大型个展。
萧勤近年在上海举行个人回顾展，展览取名「大同」，出自儒家学说中对理想世界的憧憬，本有「盗窃乱
贼不作，外户不闭」的意思。萧勤习惯在长时间闭关创作之间，对外发表作品，因此展题可谓恰如其分地
形容了艺术家的创作方式。他的抽象画融和中国传统技法和欧洲现代主义画法，包含丰富的沉思体会，为
他赢得东西方艺评人和藏家的高度评价。
萧勤的作品现藏于高雄市立美术馆、纽约现代艺术博物馆和位于阿伯里斯特威斯的威尔斯国家图书馆中。
重要拍品包括2018年于苏富比上拍的《冥想的能量》（1964），当时敲出96.3万美元，成交价远高于估计

The Chinese title of Hsiao Chin’s recent career retrospective in Shanghai – Dàtóng – roughly
translates to The Great Unity, and is defined in the Confucian classics as a society where
“there were no thieves and therefore the outer doors were not closed.” It is a fitting term for an
artist who has consistently sought to open portals between long-secluded creative realms. His
richly meditative abstractions evince a supple synthesis of traditional Chinese and modernist
European techniques, and have won him great acclaim among critics and collectors in the East
and West.
Born in Shanghai on January 30, 1935, Hsiao Chin left the Chinese mainland for Taiwan in
the late 1940s. He began studying art in 1952, and in 1956 co-founded the Ton Fan Group, or
the “Eight Great Outlaws,” a society of painters in Taipei who had broken out of the strictures
of socialist realism and found inspiration in contemporary, Western modes of formal
experimentation and personal expression. For most of his subsequent career, Hsiao moved
between various European and American cities; he currently lives and works between Taiwan
and Milan, Italy. In recent years, he has held major solo exhibitions at the National Taiwan
Museum of Fine Arts in Taichung, the Triennale Bovisa in Milan, and the Royal Academy of Fine
Arts in Brussels.
His work can also be seen in the collections of the Kaohsiung Museum of Fine Arts, Taiwan,
the Museum of Modern Art, New York, and the National Library of Wales, Aberystwyth. Auction
offerings of note include La Forza Della Meditazione (1964), which sold at Sotheby’s in 2018 for
US$963,000 against a high estimate of US$153,000.Solo Exhibition2022, Hsiao Chin and Punto,
