Tai Xiangzhou, the artist who mainly works with ink and paper, has held solo exhibitions at museums at home and abroad. But Cosmoscapes: Ink Paintings by Tai Xiangzhou, an ongoing show at the Nanchizi Museum in Beijing, is a special one for him.
His paintings on show until Aug 31 are placed in an elegant, scholarly environment built in the style resembling a classical Chinese garden and residence compound in Suzhou, Jiangsu province.
Tai's paintings present an influence by the art and philosophy of the Song Dynasty (960-1279), well resonating with the refined design and an intellectual touch of the garden museum, fashioned in the Suzhou style that can also be traced to the Song era.
