Details:
Zhen-Huan Lu (Chinese American, b. 1950)
Zhen-Huan Lu, an American artist of Chinese descent, obtained his undergraduate diploma from the Department of Stage Design, Shanghai Theatre Academy, which is famous nationwide for its Western style landscape painting program. His disciplined background in life study, western painting techniques and aesthetics of both western and eastern roots, allow him to develop a unique American style of poetic realism that aims to make visible the invisibles through his skillful portrayal of familiar scenes and objects. Zhen-Huan Lu never paints people in his landscape paintings, yet his keen interest remains in human life and emotions; whether it be rocking chairs on the porch on a lazy afternoon or a pair of oars against an aged beach house, human spirit is always present. Through his masterful technique, Zhen-Huan Lu captures a world beyond the obvious with close-ups and exquisite details.
