Features: The 21st century has brought humanity into a brand-new world, and the Chinese painting scene in the 21st century has also entered a vibrant and flourishing era. The innovation of Chinese painting is a historical mission entrusted to contemporary artists by the times. Since the latter half of the 20th century, a group of dedicated painters have made valuable contributions to the transformation of Chinese painting from classical to modern forms. They draw inspiration from ancient traditions while examining Eastern and Western cultures through modern perspectives. Standing at the vantage point of their era, they absorb and embrace diverse influences, widely gather and learn, and innovate while preserving the old. They represent the developmental direction of mainstream art in their time. The fifty contemporary masters collected and promoted in this series are valiant pioneers in this outstanding artistic group that carries the historical mission. They have upheld the spirit of their era in different fields of Chinese painting—landscape, flowers and birds, and figures—while advancing their art to a more modern stage. At the same time, they have made profound impacts and significant contributions to the prosperity and development of Chinese painting. Archives of Contemporary Chinese Artists is a comprehensive series, and "Chinese Painting" is only one part of it. In the future, we will continue to publish works by painters in various fields such as oil painting, printmaking, and sculpture to reflect the breadth and diversity of contemporary Chinese art.
