Su Xiaobai
Chinese, born 1949
Asian Art
Su Xiaobai engages both Western abstraction and the traditional Chinese medium of lacquer in creating this painting, at once luminous and opaque. Su says this painting was inspired by Buddhist philosophy and by Ming and Qing dynasty blue-and-white porcelains.
