Huang Lei-sheng (September 29, 1928 – July 25, 2011) was a Chinese ink wash painter in the Lingnan School from Taishan County, Guangdong Province. He was a disciple of Zhao Shao'ang and specialized in landscape, flowers and birds, figures, animals, and insects.[1]

Life and Career[edit]

Huang Lei-sheng initially studied Western painting, but later focused on Chinese ink wash painting, which he continued for 50 years.[2] He is one of the representative figures of the Lingnan School of painting, born in Taishan, Guangdong in 1928. Influenced by his mother, he developed a love for classical literature and painting from a young age.[3]At the age of 19, he moved to Hong Kong and taught painting to support himself after his father's passing. He also continued his studies, and became a disciple of Zhao Shao'ang in 1949. [3]In 1954, he founded the Kwok Fung Art Academy in Hong Kong, and in 1955 became an art teacher at St. David's College, Nam Wah College, La Salle College, and Fung Lin Secondary School.[4] In 1957, he won first prize in ink wash at the Asian Youth Artists Exhibition in Japan and the American Fleischman Art Award.[5] He moved to the United States in 1960, and continued to run the Kwok Fung Art Academy in San Francisco. During his time there, he gave lectures and held exhibitions in the United States and Canada.[4]: 212 

In 1961, he presented his painting "Colonizing Luna" to U.S. President John F. Kennedy.[4][1] In 1977, he presented "Peace Picture" to Canadian Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau, further using art for cultural diplomacy.[6]

In 1980, Huang Lei-sheng settled in Taiwan, and served as a teacher in the Department of Fine Arts at Chinese Culture University until his retirement in 1983.[1] In 1984, he founded the Three Stones Painting Society, named for the construction of the character lei in his name, which is composed of three iterations of the Chinese character for "stone."[4] Huang received the "Zhongxing Literature and Art Award," and served as a judge for Chinese painting at institutions and events such as the Taiwan Provincial Art Museum, Asia-Pacific Art Exhibition, and National Art Exhibition. His works have been exhibited worldwide and collected by art museums in numerous countries.[6]

Starting in 1987, with the opening of exchanges between Taiwan and China, Huang Lei-sheng led students on multiple trips to various parts of China for inspiration and creation. In his later years, he devoted himself to cultural and artistic exchanges between the two sides of the Taiwan Strait.[7]

On July 25, 2011, Huang Lei-sheng passed away at the Taipei Veterans General Hospital due to a cerebral hemorrhage.[7][8] On September 10 of the same year, a farewell ceremony was held at the Taipei Second Funeral Parlor, at which President Ma Ying-jeou issued a commendation.[9]

Artistic Style[edit]

During his travels, Huang Lei-sheng drew inspiration from nature, and accumulated a body of work through sketching. As a result, he was able to paint a wide range of subjects, including flowers and birds, insects, animals, and landscapes. He had a particular fondness for Huangshan (Mount Huang), and excelled at depicting the grandeur of mountains and rivers.[10][11] Building upon the foundation of traditional Chinese painting, he boldly incorporated new techniques, creating a lively and fresh style in Chinese painting.[12]Chang Ta-chien praised his paintings as "refreshing and delightful, with splashes of ink and unique qualities."[4] : 49 Japanese art critic Takayo Uemura described his paintings as "highly expressive of the sensibility and techniques of the Lingnan School, embodying the poetic spirit of Chinese painting."[4]: 177
