Ink and watercolor on paper, hanging scroll, featuring ducks, signed Wu Guanzhong (Chinese, 1919-2010), inscribed with 1 artist seal, dated 2003, 135 x 68 mm. Wu Guanzhong blended his training in both Chinese ink and brushwork and Western oil-painting styles into a unique form of modern art epitomized by his acclaimed landscapes, many of which verged on abstraction. Wu graduated (1942) from the National Academy of Art (now the China Academy of Art) in Hangzhou and studied (1947–50) at the école Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts in Paris, where he was influenced by European painters such as Vincent van Gogh, Maurice Utrillo, and Amedeo Modigliani. Wu returned to China in 1950, but the government condemned his figure paintings, notably his many nudes, and during the early years of the Cultural Revolution (1966–76), he was sent to the country as a labourer. He was allowed to return to painting in the early 1970s, and by 1978 his works were being featured in the Central Academy of Fine Arts (CAFA) in Beijing. Wu taught at many schools, including the CAFA and Tsinghua University, Beijing, and he participated in exhibitions in Hong Kong, Singapore, Japan, the U.S., and Britain, notably at the British Museum, where in 1992 he was the first living Chinese artist to be exhibited.
