Escapism 3 Abstract Painting (Original) Painting

Zhouzhou Zhou, China’s renowned contemporary artist, was born in Hebei Province and graduated from the China Central Academy of Arts and Design. During his years of work in Beijing, Zhou focused on the academic study of contemporary Chinese ink and wash painting. He became one of the leading figures in this field because of his bold attempts to transform traditional painting techniques and his efforts to combine Chinese and Western art theories. His workshave been exhibited in the UK, China and Russia and they are sought after by collectors and galleries both at home and abroad. Zhou’s approach to painting is spontaneous, his confident brushstrokes creating a sense of flow and energy. Although abstract, his compositions elegantly form into imaginative landscapes that draw viewers in and immerse them in a serene atmosphere. Somewhat secretive in the nature on his approach to the subject matter, Zhou has said that painting serves as a form of escapism of from daily life. Therefore, looking at his Escapism series, you might catch a glimpse of what is behind his abstract mind. 2017 Parallax Art Fair, London, UK 2017 Hainan International Art Fair, Hainan, China 2016 A Silent Poem, London, UK 2016 Art China 2016, Beijing, China 2016 Hainan international Art exhibition, Beijing, China 2015 "Without Limitation" contemporary art exhibition, Shang Shang International Art Museum, Beijing, China 2015 Contemporary Ink Art Exhibition, Bird’s Nest Stadium, Beijing, China 2015 "Ji" Art Exhibition, Enjoy Museum of Art in 798 art district, Beijing, China 2015 Micro Art Exhibition, Beijing Jiuceng International Art Museum 2015 The LA Art Show 2015 Chinese New Year Art Exhibition, Beijing, China 2014 Neva Art Exhibition (part of China-Russia Cultural Exchange Year activities), St Petersburg History Museum, Russia 2014 Moscow Art Exhibition (China-Russia Cultural Exchange Year activities), Kremlin, Russia 2014 The 20th Beijing International Art Expo, China 2014 The "Beautiful New World" Exhibition, Songzhuang, Beijing, China 2014 Southern China International Art Exhibition, Guangdong Province, China 2014 Micro Art Exhibition held by Sunshine International Art Museum, Beijing, China
