Product Description
Xu Beihong: Pioneer of Modern Chinese Painting accompanies the first comprehensive exhibition of artwork by Xu Beihong shown outside Asia. It highlights a selection of 61 Chinese ink paintings, oil paintings, drawings, and pastels from the Xu Beihong Memorial Museum in Beijing.

Xu Beihong (1895-1953) was among the first Chinese artists to study Western-style painting in Europe, and he is often called the "Father of Modern Chinese Painting." His images, particularly of horses, are familiar throughout China, as are his monumental history paintings Tian Heng and His Five Hundred Warriors and The Foolish Man Who Removed the Mountains. Photographs of Xu Beihong illustrate his life as an artist, educator, and family man.

Ronald Y. Otsuka is Dr. Joseph de Heer Curator of Asian Art, Denver Art Museum. Fangfang Xu is former director of the Music Department, Renmin University of China. Other contributors include Xu Qingping, Chen Hao, Kevin McLoughlin, and Xu Ji.
