At the age of 15, he entered the Hangzhou School of Fine Arts, where for 6 years he received a solid training, alternating traditional Chinese painting - calligraphy, landscape painting - and Western practices - classical drawing from live models, oil painting, watercolour, etc. He soon broke away from the imposed curriculum and opted for oil painting. At the time, he was particularly influenced by C\u00e9zanne, Matisse, Picasso and Chagall, whom he discovered through illustrations in Western magazines and postcards of Paris brought back by his uncle. From 1941 to 1947, he taught at the school where he had studied, then decided to continue his artistic training in Paris for two years. Arriving in France in 1948, he settled in Montparnasse and joined the Nouvelle Ecole de Paris. His stay in France soon turned into an exile in 1949, when Mao Zedong came to power. This marked the beginning of a life of encounters and work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Le_gout_de_la_couleur\"><\/span>A taste for colour<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/universvoyage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/ZWK_cat-022-Michaux-Lecture-V-1_photo-Antoine-Mercier-Copier.jpeg\" data-rel=\"lightbox-image-2\" data-rl_title=\"Deauville.

This particularity helped him to emerge in the Parisian art world. In 1949, the Greuze gallery offered him his first exhibition, followed by La Hune in 1950 and a contract with the Pierre gallery the following year. From 1950 onwards, he devoted himself to lithography, to which he added colour. His first eight Paris lithographs were presented to Henri Michaux (1899 - 1984), who wrote a poem for each one. This marked the beginning of an unfailing friendship with the poet, who was the first to recognise and value his talent. <em>\"This meeting was decisive because Michaux's attention to my work gave me confidence.<\/em>he says. Poetry, a major literary genre in Chinese civilisation, is so close to painting in this tradition! The same instrument: the brush, and the same medium: ink. <em>\"I've always appreciated silence in poetry as well as in painting. Traditional Chinese poetry always includes silences.

He also became close to the painter Jean Dubuffet. The discovery of Paul Klee's work in 1951 was to play an important role in his career, pushing him towards lyrical abstraction, a movement characterised by improvisation, spontaneity of gesture and the emotion of the moment. From then on, he left pure figuration behind and moved towards allegory. From 1953, the painter banished all explicit reference to reality from his work and returned to the sources of calligraphy, which he combined with abstraction. The discovery of the New York School and the contribution of the traditional technique of Chinese ink enriched his hybrid universe, developing a painting that was always on the border between figuration and abstraction, between East and West.<br>Following the example of Paul Klee, Zao Wou-Ki incorporated invented signs based on archaic Chinese characters into his works. The 1960s were characterised by a style that was both tormented and paradoxically controlled. From the 1970s onwards, on the advice of his friend Henri Michaux, he returned to the Indian ink technique, with large, glowing compositions streaked with black.<br>Following the death of his second wife May, Zao Wou-Ki returned to China in March 1972, reuniting with his family for the first time since 1948. It was then that he reconnected with his roots. Back in Paris, he met the woman who was to become his wife in 1977 and bring him happiness and serenity, Fran\u00e7oise Marquet, curator of the Paris Museum of Modern Art. His painting became more diluted, and emptiness took centre stage. His new studio, set up in the barn of his country house in the Loiret, enabled him to paint large formats and, above all, imposing triptychs throughout the 1980s and 1990s. These are all pictorial tributes to Claude Monet, C\u00e9zanne, Jean-Paul Riopelle and others. Not forgetting the sumptuous triptych dedicated to his wife, in shades of red, pink and mauve. Red, the colour of love, <em>\"the noblest colour<\/em> according to this artist who believed in the power of painting to capture the essence of the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Une_scenographie_ouverte_en_echo_a_la_liberte_artistique_de_Zao_Wou-Ki\"><\/span>An open scenography echoing the artistic freedom of Zao Wou-Ki<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/universvoyage.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/ZWK_cat-042-2007-54-Ibiza_photo-Antoine-Mercier-Copier-Copier.jpeg\" data-rel=\"lightbox-image-4\" data-rl_title=\"Deauville.
