Mind Landscapes: The Paintings of C. C. Wang
胸中丘壑：王己千绘画

Born in 1907, C.C. Wang was praised as one of the best Chinese artists of his generation. A New York City resident for decades, he was also respected for his knowledge of Chinese painting, his teaching, and his private art collection. In his early years, Wang focused exclusively on the brushwork of traditional masters and developed mature brush painting skills, with little interest in composition or color. After decades of study in traditional Chinese and modern Western painting, he formed his own painting style using inked texture, random strokes, prominent and original color, unusual forms, and dramatic compositions. This exhibition featured thirty pieces of Wang’s landscape paintings, representing his four stylistic stages, from the 1930s to the 1980s.
