lt;p>Sanyu: His Life and Works in Oil traces the life of theChinese artist (1895-1966) from his early years in Chinaand Japan, to his artistic experimentation and developmentin Paris and New York, ending in his tragic death,impoverished and forgotten. Today, however, Sanyu is oneof the most coveted Chinese modern artists. An examinationof his life reveals that it was precisely the polaritiesand tensions he experienced that spurred him to create aunique pictorial language that so dynamically integratedthe spirit of Western modernity with centuries-old establishedChinese traditions. Sanyu metamorphosed froma Chinese artist of the modern period to a modernistwith Chinese cultural roots. These intersecting dynamicsresulted in a hybridization previously unseen.
Featuring examples of his works of all genres and drawingon a wealth of archival material as well as personal storiesrecounted by people who knew Sanyu, this biography is themost comprehensive record of Sanyu's life to date.
