[Digital Exhibition 網上展覽] Enduring Strength and Passion The Chinese and Western Art of Ting Yin Yung 困乏多情 香江藝緣 The University Museum and Art Gallery of the University of Hong Kong, is honoured to present Enduring Strength and Passion: The Chinese and Western Art of Ting Yin Yung, a retrospective exhibition of Master Ting’s multifaceted work in commemoration of his 120th anniversary. A native of Maoming county in Guangdong province, Ting Yin Yung (1902–1978) studied Western painting in Tokyo at the Tokyo School of Fine Arts in the early 1920s. He returned to Mainland China in 1925 and emigrated to Hong Kong in 1949, where he further developed his artistic practice.Ting’s painterly styles vary widely. He excelled at figure paintings and abstract depictions that are indicative of Western influence. His figures bring to mind his study of form and volume—a principal of Cubism—whereas other works are rendered in strong and contrasting colours—a characteristic of Fauvism. Master Ting consistently aimed to reconcile the techniques and characteristics of Western and Chinese approaches to painting.Ting’s artistic style is noteworthy for its simplicity and nuanced saturation of pigments. The remarkable one-stroke technique showcased the mastery of Ting’s own style. His use of line, void and space exemplifies his contribution to the formulation of a modern Chinese style.View the Digital exhibition here:https://www.virtual.umag.hku.hk/tyy-digital-exhibition香港大學美術博物館榮幸呈獻「困乏多情 香江藝緣：丁衍庸的中西藝術」展覽，回顧丁公眾多作品，以茲紀念其誕辰120周年。丁衍庸 (1902─1978) ，廣東茂名縣人，於1920年代初在東京美術學校學習西畫，並於1925年回國。1949年，他移居香港，繼續創作及實踐其藝術理念。丁公畫風不拘一格。他善繪人物，受西方現代藝術影響，多以簡約為主。他所繪的人物，除活現形狀和體積的神髓、具立體主義特色外，鮮艷的色彩及其強烈的對比，亦表現出野獸派的特徵。他的繪畫作品融貫中西，蘊含歐洲現代主義和中國水墨畫的技術和風格。丁公藝術風格亦趨簡約，用色濃淡有致，筆隨意轉，另獨特的「一筆畫」赫赫有名。其能巧妙運用線條、留白和空間，為近現代中國水墨畫畫壇作出重大貢獻。到此瀏覽網上展覽：https://www.virtual.umag.hku.hk/tyy-digital-exhibition Date/Time: 01/07/2025 to 30/06/2026 00:00-23:59 Venue: Online Organized by: University Museum and Art Gallery
