Zhou Chunya
Zhou Chunya is a contemporary Chinese artist, born in 1955 in Chongqing , Sichuan Province. Zhou Chunya is known mainly for his series of colorful "green dog" paintings, but is also considered one of the country's most talented painters of rural scenes and nature. His works are almost expressionist - sometimes using frank brush strokes, and other times creating colorful, fuzzy and indistinct landscapes. His paintings are often filled with characters left alone in the world, or scenes of nature devoid of men. In recent years, he began to paint a series of portraits of sex scenes in nature. He graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts in 1982, and is currently living in Chengdu.
For more than a decade, Zhou Chunya painted his dog, a pampered German shepherd. He always painted green, with a red tummy and tongue. His works show not only the profound understanding that existed between Zhou Chunya and his friend, but also the immense talent of the artist to transcribe each emotion and state of mind, applying equally to men and animals, Using the same model over and over again. When the dog died, presumably poisoned by neighbors, Zhou Chunya's grief and sorrow were expressed directly on the canvas with his marvelous pale green, straight and stiff as an inanimate dog.
Contemporary Art
Contemporary art or modern art is the art of today and is produced by artists living in this era of the twenty-first century. It is a reflection of society and issues relevant to ourselves, and the world around us. Contemporary art is a dynamic combination of concepts that challenge traditional boundaries and is a part of a cultural dialogue that concerns larger contextual frameworks such as personal and cultural identity, family, community, and nationality.
