Eight years ago, I met Mr. Liu Jiutong through the recommendation of a friend. Liu Jiutong, 65438-0977, was born in Shaanxi and grew up in the desert of Shaanxi. Liu Jiutong has cultivated the great ambition of local residents who are not afraid of sandstorms. After graduating from Xi Academy of Fine Arts in 2000, I studied and created art before coming to Beijing. In view of the opening and prosperity of Shili sheep farm, Miao moved to Shanghai in 2004 and began his challenging and energetic artistic career.

? Combining the heroic northwest plateau with the unrestrained vitality of Shanghai, Liu Jiutong's artistic creation is divorced from tradition. It is full of exquisite and carefree colors, and the contradictory unity of gorgeous and simple, aesthetic and simple, exaggerated and restrained, passionate and calm, concrete and abstract is so harmonious and integrated in his young artist who is less than 40 years old. Furthermore, the deep-rooted ink and wash culture of the Chinese nation is merged with western oil painting pigments, resulting in chemical changes, which will bring an abstract landscape full of China charm and oriental image power.
? The beauty of abstract art lies in the beauty and harmony of the picture. After understanding the creative background of the works, I believe we will have a deeper understanding of abstract painting. If we want to deeply discuss the value of works and the orientation of art history, it is often the key factor to evaluate an artist and whether the value of works of art can return to ancient times.
? Because it is close to Mr. Liu's studio, I will run to the studio whenever I have time. A little artistic edification ~ Because of my good friends, Mr. Liu will also tell me how he came to Shanghai from Shaanxi. At that time, it was difficult to learn painting and the bottleneck period when creating a good work. And their family (sister-Liu Xiaomiao (oil painting), brother-in-law-Lu Rujin (Chinese painting) and wife He Dan (oil painting)) are all classic allusions of painters, tell us.
Because of the close relationship with Mr. Liu's family, I will be the first to praise his works every time they come out. Then take pictures to make hair bands. Then a few hundred thousand people will leave a print like this. That kind of satisfaction really makes Mr. Liu happy. Of course, these premieres can only be produced by A Xiang. Because Mr. Liu's agent (Taiwan Province Province) has signed the contract of 16 years in succession, no matter how beautiful his paintings are, he can only appreciate them and cannot sell them privately. If you want to get his paintings, you must go through an auction house or an exhibition.
? Teacher Liu Can's present foundation and achievements are related to his usual efforts, bold attempts, explorations and reflections on the abstract concepts of Shanghai style, and his talent. He spends a long time traveling every year, and when he comes back, he will have brand-new works.
Teacher Liu once told me that his idol is Zhao Wuji. In the oriental abstract art, Zhao Wuji's position is beyond doubt. I believe that Mr. Liu, an outstanding junior, will have a vast world of his own in the future history of abstract art in China if he can persevere and continue to seek self-breakthrough.
