George Tsui: After twenty years in the New York art scene, American artist George Tsui set out on a creative journey into China in the pursuit of reaching the next level in his artistic career . The grand and splendid architecture of the forbidden city and the mysterious and sensual character of the Dun Huang cave were the immediate inspiration for the first group of paintings George created.
George was born in Hong Kong, and moved to New York in the late 60s, studying first at the School of Visual Arts and later majoring in oil painting at the Art Students League.
Always fascinated and attracted to the rare and exotic, elements of fantasy are often present in George’s work. Chinese themes filled his imagination.
George doesn’t pretend to be painting the real thing but draws us into a fantasy where the signs of subterfuge are plain to see. As the artist describes " these pieces employ a dual technique of painting and sculpture that is traditionally ornate yet abstract in the most modern sense. "
