Looking back with pleasure

Yanhuang Art Museum is presenting the Exhibition of Founders of Modern Chinese Art Series: Liu Haisu until Sept 10, which is the second of the series after the exhibition of Xu Beihong's works.

Featuring both oil paintings and traditional Chinese paintings, some 100 representative works of Liu are selected for the exhibition, including Rocks in the Middle of the Stream, Notre Dame de Paris at the Sunset, and Sunflower.

Liu is known to express flickering emotions through his paintbrush, combining Western expressionism and abstractionism with Chinese traditional painting techniques.
