Li Xing-bai--Li is a painter of the Beijing Painting
Academy. He was invited by Indiana University to be
an artist-in-residence in
1985.
Kuang Chung-yin--Kuang is a follower of Chang Ta-chien,
one of the foremost masters in China in this century.

Retrospective, an exhibition highlighting CCI's past
art exhibitions to mark the opening of its new facilities.

exhibition to showcase points of artistic interaction
and difference, it then expanded to a gamut of programs
and activities held during the exhibition period.
Ethnic Minorities within China, Diversity and
Unity--an exhibition of paintings by three Chinese
artists who traveled to various regions in China and
depicted the lives and customs of many of the ethnic
minorities in China.
Fissures and Chasms, Recent Work by Qiu Deshu--Qiu,
a Shanghai artist who had evolved a uniquely personal
style and technique of painting, was an artist in
residence at Tufts University in 1986.
The Loom and the Wheel, featuring works by
six weavers and ceramists from Asia.
Five Chinese American Artists--For the first
time Chinese American artists were shown as a group
in Boston. The purpose of this show was to examine
the conscious and unconscious links of one's ethnic
background to his/her artistic creativity.
1987
Liu Tian Wei, New Work At Chinese Culture Institute--Liu's
deep rooted Chinese training fused with unique personal
views and experiences in art resulted in his abstract
work created in 1983 and 1984 which is a marriage
of line, form, color, space, rhythm and movement,
and the beauty and flavor of Chinese calligraphic
gesture. His Oeuvre of that period is imbued with
a strong sense of music and lyricism. It generated
a great deal of favorable comments from the critics
and enthusiasm in the collectors. In his paintings
of 1986, the viewer may find the connection with Chinese
art very tenuous. One may think that he has departed
completely from his Chinese tradition and entered
the main stream of Western modern art. In fact, there
is a intrinsic but intangible relation between Liu's
oeuvre and traditional Chinese art. Beyond the obvious
differences in media and techniques, a deeper layer
of difference between Chinese art and Western art
is seen in the attitudes of the artists when dealing
with human emotions and cosmic problems. Chinese art
rarely dwells on agony and despair. Such emotions
are always treated with utmost subtlety and control
whereas in the West they are exaggerated, even dramatized.
Sharing Oswald Spengler's view about the history and
cultures of mankind, Liu Tian Wei uses his art to
express his sympathy with this German philosopher.
The meanings in these works are profound yet the expression
is subtle.
Spirit of the Brush, the Relations Between Chinese
Painting and Calligraphy--Nowhere in the world
has calligraphy so closely connected with painting
as it has in China and Japan where Chinese influence
is most evident. The Chinese scholars and artists
have used the same kind of ink, brush and paper or
silk for centuries and the two arts have shared the
same aesthetic theories and principles. The two arts
have been related since the first century of our era.
With the rise of wen-jen hua (literary man's painting
or literati painting) in the Sung dynasty the closeness
of the tie reached its height. Many famous painters
of Sung and subsequent dynasties were excellent calligraphers
as well. The qualities of calligraphy are judged by
its Ch'i-yun (rhythmic vitality), which has always
been the chief desideratum of both calligraphy and
painting. It has been generally accepted that training
in calligraphy forms the basis for painting. Even
today, while Chinese painting is not taught in the
schools, calligraphy is a required course from the
third grade through senior high. This exhibition,
with explanatory text, illustrations and sample art
pieces, is intended for educating the viewer about
the techniques, materials and shared qualities of
the two arts.
Chinese Women Artists--The show featured ten
area women artists working in different media.
Two Artists from Kwangzhou--We organized
and presented the work of Wang Sha-kang and Liang
zho-shu, two very expectional artists, at Boston's
Symphony Hall.
Painting in China, the Last Three Decades--The
show reflects the dreams and hopes of the Chinese
artists who have lived in a society which, not long
ago, would not allow expressive license, but now encourages
the exploration of new ideas. The importance of this
show is to give our audience an opportunity to see
what China's new generation of artists are producing.
Dreams and Fantasies, the Art of Luis Chan--A
leading member of the Hong Kong Art Club since 1930
and author of several books, Luis Chan is a master
of dreamlike illusion and a poet of the incongruous.
Chan's traditional style gave way to a series of experimentations
in the sixties, and he arrived at his current, imaginative
version of Surrealism during the seventies. Belonging
to the first generation of modern Chinese painter,
he is widely recognized in South East Asia.
Boston Remembered, Paintings by Wang Shakong--Wang's
nostalgic watercolors of China's countryside charmed
Boston's audience when they were shown at CCI in a
group show. During his sojourn in Boston, Wang fondly
recorded the landmarks and scenery of Boston and its
vicinity with his paint brush. Upon leaving Boston
the artist shared with the audience his feelings and
perceptions of this city.
1988
Artists from China, Personal Expressions--The show
featured a group of highly accomplished and well known
Chinese painters, sculptors and print makers such
as Yuan Yunsheng, Wang Keping, Bai Jingzhou, Ma Desheng
and Yang Qian who for the pursuit of more creative
freedom, had left China in the past ten years and
worked intensely "in an attempt to make up for a century
of lost time," as the leader of this group stated.
The output of this group clearly shows the aspiration
of contemporary Chinese artists and the directions
they are taking.
Gong Hai-lan--Gong, a resident of Tokyo, is a young
and promising artist originally from Shanghai. His
surrealistic style draws the poetry from ordinary
things, and while his technique has been influenced
by Western traditions, his art reflects the many facets
of Eastern aesthetics.
A Glimpse of the Middle Kingdom--a photographic
documentary by Akram Burton that explores the beauty
of China and the life of its people.
For the Theatre; Designs Bridging the East and
the West--An exhibition of models, renderings,
scene paintings and costume designs. The two D and
three D designs are accompanied by informative texts
that enable the viewer to learn about the process
of the designers' creativity. The three designers
were faculty members of theatre schools in Beijing
and Shanghai. They have designed for numerous stage
productions as well as for television.
Asian American Artists Annual Show--Works
ranged from painting, drawing, ceramics to sculpture
and installation.
Chinese Contemporary Tapestry by Yuan Yun-Fu--Yuan
is one of the leading contemporary artists in China.
His mastery of Chinese folk and fine arts and knowledge
of Western art combined with his inventive ideas resulted
in these refreshingly unique designs for the monumental
silk and wool wall hangings. Coming directly from
Beijing, the tapestries were shown for the first time
in New England.
1989
Chinese Calligraphy by Liu Tian Wei--Invited
by CCI's curator the artist created this most unique
show consisting of 16 single pieces or sets of 2,
3 or 4 pieces of work in which the contemporary concept
of design and the abstract beauty of Chinese calligraphy
resulted in a perfect marriage.
Penjing U.S. Premiere 1989--The Chinese have
been developing the art of creating and growing miniature
trees and landscapes since the 8th century. This art
was introduced to Japan at a later date. Today, most
Westerners know this attractive and absorbing form
of gardening only by way of the derivative Japanese
Bonsai. This exhibition afforded the viewer
an opportunity to see the original purity and breadth
of Chinese Penjing. The pieces were cultivated by
two leading masters of this art in China. They came
to Boston with the show and demonstrated at the opening.
Sister Cities: Boston And Hongzhow Landscapes
of Boston and Hongzhow--watercolors depicting
the city- and waterscapes of both cities by two artists
in China. Wang Xu-zhu visited Boston in 1985 and was
moved by the various sights of the City which he felt
was so different from cities in China. He recorded
his excited emotion and first impression of the streets,
buildings, and the Charles River, and created a group
of paintings which he brought back to China and showed
there. Xia Ye painted the scenes of Hangzhou and joined
Wang in this show.
Essence Beyond Form, Art Reflecting East-West
Cultural Interactions--Exploring the results of
Chinese influence on non-Asian artists, this juried
show featured 12 area artists. Their work ranged from
painting to sculpture and photography.
Cities Anonymous, Fine Art Photography by Yves
Lieou--The work consists of some three dozen images,
from shots taken in recent years both in this country
and abroad. These are not travelogue pictures or ordinary
scenes of beauty. They are the artist's personal expression
of what he saw, be it some wry incident or a tableau
with social overtones.
Best Publications from Taiwan--A book fair held at
our gallery and co-sponsored by us and the World Book
Store. Over 14,000 titles were displayed.
The Dream Shattered, Ten Year Reform and the Beijing
Massacre--a photo, video and slide documentary
co-produced by CCI and Hong Kong Chinese Students
for Human Rights.
Beyond Ink and Color, Paintings by Nancy Chu Woo--The
show consists of over thirty pieces of abstract landscape
paintings each is an orchestration of colors. Woo's
intense study of both Eastern and Western modes of
painting coupled with her strong desire to search
for the new give birth to a style that has the poetry
of Chinese landscape painting and the boldness of
Western abstract.
1990
A Fresh Look at Old Tradition--showcasing
the work of nine regional Chinese artists each of
whom interprets the tradition of Chinese painting
in a unique way.
Chinatown Community Plan--An exhibition of
architectural designs submitted by various architects
for a Chinatown Community Center. The project is part
of the Urban Design and Development Control section's
effort in developing a community-based master plan
for Chinatown. We involved in the process.
New Expression: Contemporary Chinese Brush Paintings,
1984-1989--Over 30 paintings by ten artists from
different regions in China and from Hong Kong were
featured in the show. With sound trainings in the
traditional Chinese mode and media these artists have
successfully evolved powerful personal styles which
challenge tradition and yet at the same time pay homage
to it. This group of work are technically facile,
visually pleasing and fresh in approaches and treatments
of familiar subjects. They represent tendencies of
contemporary Chinese painting.
Overseas Chinese Artists from Taiwan--penjing
(miniature landscape in a pot), painting and calligraphy
by ten artists from Taiwan
Woo Yeh Kee, A Foremost Painter of the Lin-nan
School--Founded over half a century ago, the Lin
Nan School has a stronghold in Kuangdong Province
although the style of that school has also been adopted
by artists elsewhere. But those artists are mostly
of Kuangdong origin. The style of this school is characterized
by the use of bright and diaphanous colors and the
insistence on close representation of the object depicted.
1991
One Medium Two Cultures--
Cross Currents--Paontings by Elsa Marley and Chen
Keliang Although generally abstract their new
work ratain allusions to landscape and the perception
of atmosphere and light while paying tribute to modernist
gestural painting.. In these works the artists have
introduced skeins of poured-color and gold enamels
which overlay to rich ornamental quality onto the
subtle watercolor washes that are the traditionally
derived foundation for their work. Many paintings
are in the customary scroll form and others are smaller
works on silk-mounted Chinese paper.
Asian Women as Artists--
Chinese folk paintings from Wangxia village
Paintings done by farmers from Wangxia Village of
northwestern Hebei Province. They give us vivid views
of life in rural China. Wangxia is rrich in folk art
traditions including embroidery, paper-cutting and
furniture painting, elements of which are seen in

folk paintings.

The Language Of The Birds And Flowers, Chinese
Paintings By Guo Yi-Fang Trained in the Chinese painting
tradition and specialized in the bird-and-flower genre,
Guo Yi-Fang used the tradition as a point of departure

TERU YOSHIDA SPARKS, oil paintings and pencil
drawings Three series: Trees. Goddesses, Scenes from
Goethe's Faust-Part II Artist's statement: "I work
with lots of feelings; feelings about deteriorating
and poisoned nature. I often meditate on life and
the relationship between man and nature. The symbols
in my work represent the light of realization, the
shadow of death, the moon of rejuvenation, and the
trees of the spirits of nature and man. The rivers
and water are the flow of life." Teru Yoshida sparks
was born to Buddhist parents in Tokyo, Teru Yoshida's
outlook on life in her early years was influenced
by Buddhist philosophy. Trained at Bunka Gakuin and
the Brooklyn Museum School, Ms. Yoshida has lived
and traveled in Europe and deeply interested in the
precise technique of Flemish paintings. Ms. Yoshida
respects life and modern science, and believes in
the interdependence of all living things in the universe.
Her paintings and drawings are urgent and intense
calling for the end of man's exploitation of nature.
She said: "The mind that discovers and invents can
also seek to exploit." "Our provenance is not the
mastery of nature, but balance within nature.'

Scholars and Pavilions in the Mountains,
paintings by Judith Funkhouser, "I believe tat art
comes form solitary contemplation and wondering and
I have long been interested in famous hermits, solitary
thinkers and wonderers such as Leonardo da Vinci,
Matsuo, Basho, HenryDavid Thareau, and certain Chinese
scholar painters. I have been very much influenced
by the Chinese scholar painter who became reclues
and escaped to the mountains rather than serve under
corrupt or foreign governments or to avoid the dangers
of political intrigues. They painted to express a
mood or feeling, putting down an idea or concept quickly,
an inspiration of a moment and revealing the artist's
true self. They believed that the primary thing in
painting was the joy of brush rhythms and that a painting
should not be a lavish copy of reality. Allusiveness
and suggestion reflected the intimacy of communication
among a small elite of scholars with a similar education,
who needed only to hint at a literacy of painterly
allusion to be understood. They called thair paintings
Silent Poems. They captured certain poetic moment
and immortalized them. They workered in ink only and
often deliberately used distortions of form and touches
of awkwardness. They painted a world to which man
belongs but does not dominate. Their paintings are
noted for their emptiness and above all knowing when
one has said enough." Judith Fundhouser

calls those pictures his self-portraits.
