Yixing is known for its fine clay with which artisans have produced teapots prized by tea lovers for centuries. But this historic city in Jiangsu province is also home to modern artists, among them Xu Beihong, Wu Guanzhong and Wu Dayu.
Encouraged by this history, Cheng Qiang became a painter and an inheritor of the culture of his hometown tradition. In addition to starting a project at the ancestral residence of Xu Beihong, he also directs the Xu Beihong Art Gallery.
