NEW YORKfreeslotsonlinenodeposit, Augfreeslotsonlinenodeposit. 15 (Xinhua) -- Chinese artist Liu Jingtao on Thursday kicked off his solo exhibition of 17 artworks on Chinese landscapes, Tibetan buddhist art, and fine-brush flower-and-bird paintings in New York City.
Included are several thangka paintings bearing innovative characteristics, one of which was displayed in the Carrousel Hall of the Louvre in Paris, France, in 2023.
Liu, an artist from central China's Hubei province, said his thangka paintings were designed to entertain modern aesthetic interests with innovations on design, use of mineral pigments and intrinsic contents.
The exhibition, staged at Murray Hill Art Museum in Flushing of Queens borough, New York, is expected to open through the end of August, according to the museum.
Born in 1977, Liu has a doctorate in design art and a doctorate in literature.
Over the years, Liu's creation of meticulous landscapes, meticulous flower-and-birds, large thangkas and heavy color freehand brushwork reflects his cognition, inheritance and innovation of Chinese traditional paintings, according to the exhibition.■
