Artist Chen Yifei Ningbo, China, 1946 - 2005
Oil on canvas; 76.4 x 51.2 cm. Chen Yifei is a central figure in the development of Chinese oil painting and is one of China's most renowned contemporary artists. Although he was denounced for "capitalist behavior" Chen's obvious talent and mastery of oil painting techniques won him recognition by the authorities. Chen soon became one of the leading painters of the Cultural Revolution. He was famous for his big Mao portraits and depiction of grand heroic events of the modern Chinese nation. After the Cultural Revolution, Chen became the forerunner of a new age in Chinese aesthetics, promoting a new sense of modernity and lifestyle in his paintings as well as in fashion, cinema and design. In his oil paintings Chen abandoned his uncritical glorification of the party to blend realistic technique and romanticism with Chinese subject matter, especially melancholic and lonely women in traditional dresses. His characteristic "Romantic Realism" paintings use dark and dense colors and convey a sense of richness and integrity. In 1980 he became one of the first artists from the People's Republic of China permitted to study art in the United States. Chen Yifei enrolled at Hunter College and later found work as an art restorer. In 1983, before he attained his master's degree at Hunter, his solo exhibition at the Hammer Galleries was a great success. Later, he established as a contract artist for the Hammer Galleries. Chen returned to China and settled in Shanghai in 1990. He painted Impressionist landscapes of Tibet and his native Zhejiang Province. At the same time, he had also transformed himself into a style entrepreneur, creating fashion brands, decorating hotels and selling high-end clothing and chic home furnishings. He also supervised one of the country's biggest modeling agencies. Some critics said he turned increasingly commercial. In 2005, while working on a feature film, "Barber," Chen fell ill and died. His early death left intellectual circles in shock and highlighted his major role in the Chinese contemporary art scene. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chen_Yifei

Chen Yifei fue una figura central en el desarrollo de la pintura china al óleo y uno de los artistas contemporáneos más reconocidos de China. Nació en 1946 en Ningbo, en la provincia costera de Zhejiang. Siendo un niño, su familia se mudó a Shanghai, donde estudiaría los artistas rusos y el realismo socialista, el estilo de arte oficial de China en ese momento. En 1965 se graduó en la Shanghai College of Art. Al comienzo de la Revolución Cultural, Chen fue denunciado por "comportamiento capitalista", sin embargo, su obvio talento y dominio de las técnicas de pintura al óleo le valió el reconocimiento de las autoridades. Chen pronto se convirtió en uno de los principales pintores de la Revolución Cultural. Era famoso por sus grandes retratos de Mao y la representación de grandes eventos heroicos de la nación china moderna. Después de la Revolución Cultural, Chen se convirtió en el precursor de una nueva era en la estética china, promoviendo un nuevo sentido de la modernidad y el estilo de vida en sus pinturas, así como en la moda, el cine y el diseño. En sus pinturas al óleo, Chen cambió de orientación para mezclar la técnica realista y el romanticismo con el tema chino, especialmente las mujeres melancólicas y solitarias con vestidos tradicionales. Sus pinturas características de "Realismo romántico" usan colores oscuros y densos y transmiten una sensación de riqueza e integridad. En 1980 se convirtió en uno de los primeros artistas de la República Popular de China con permiso para trabajar y estudiar arte en los Estados Unidos. Chen Yifei, quien a menudo dijo que llegó con solo $ 38 en su bolsillo, pronto se inscribió en Hunter College y encontró trabajo como restaurador de arte. En 1983, incluso antes de obtener su maestría en el Hunter, su exposición individual en las Hammer Galleries causó sensación al agotarse en la primera semana. Más tarde, pintó con contrato para las Galerías Martillo. Cuando Chen regresó a China en 1990, se estableció en Shanghai, donde algunos críticos dicen que se volvió cada vez más comercial. Aunque a menudo viajaba al Tíbet y pintaba paisajes impresionistas en su provincia natal de Zhejiang, también se había transformado en un emprendedor de estilo, decorando hoteles, creando marcas de moda y vendiendo ropa de alta gama y muebles elegantes para el hogar. Incluso supervisó una de las agencias de modelos más grandes del país. Sus películas incluyen un documental sobre refugiados judíos en Shanghai antes de 1949. Mientras trabajaba en un largometraje, "Barber", Chen cayó enfermo y murió. Su temprana muerte dejó a los círculos intelectuales en estado de shock y destacó su papel principal en la escena del arte contemporáneo chino.

Chen's works considered a unique combination of both Western and Eastern influences. Chen's style combines the realism associated with European art styles, with Eastern subject matter and themes close to the artist's history.
