Zen artist Yi-Xiong Gu
Yi-Xiong, current famous Zen Lay Buddhist. He loves to discuss philosophy, and his favorite is calligraphy and painting. his paintings integrate with western beautiful theory. They also have the special character of eastern beauty judgment. his tableau is simple and real. they contain the beauty of "real & simple". Perhaps because he was born next to the Yellow River, he has the characters what Great Northwesterner's should have: strong, generous and real. Within the chinese painting continental, his digs a new path and has different character. He is the frontline inventor and pioneer of the current traditional painting site. I wish YiXiong continue to work hard and climb up to the peak of Art! And success!
