{"Id":8972,"Name":"Chan Peng Lo","Biography":"\u003Cp\u003EBorn in Chiayi in 1983, Lo Chan-Peng graduated from the Chinese Culture University and National Taiwan Normal University with a MFA in Western Painting. A regular prize winner from a tender age, Lo has been awarded the Union Culture \u0026amp; Art Foundation Young Artist Award, the Chi-Mei Cultivation Award and the Kaohsiung Award. His \u0026lsquo;Strawberry Generation\u0026rsquo; series lays the foundation for his famed meticulous portrait painting style, and his later \u0026lsquo;Ashen Face\u0026rsquo; paintings brought him international acclaim. Lo has been working as artist in resident in worldwide institutions such as ESMoA in Los An- geles (2013) and in Berlin (2011). His recent exhibitions include \u0026lt;Misty \u0026ndash; Lo Chan-Peng\u0026gt; (Taipei, 2017), \u0026lt;Let\u0026rsquo;s Talk History \u0026ndash; the Trilogy of Art Gallery Industry in Taiwan\u0026gt; (Taipei, 2017), \u0026lt;Situation of Existence - Contemporary Realistic Art in East Asia\u0026gt; (Nantou, 2016).\u003C/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003ELo Chan-Peng\u0026rsquo;s signature realistic and detail ori- entated brushworks are kept in the recent \u0026lsquo;Misty\u0026rsquo; canvases. The painstakingly painted facial expres- sions inspire the audience to reflect on the purest images of human forms and the sitters of the por- traits mirror the contemporary society that is familiar to the viewers. The series can be seen as a catalogue of men, and the pictures inspire one to gaze beyond the surface, explore one\u0026rsquo;s religious sustenance and the human nature.\u003C/p\u003E\n\u003Cp\u003E\u0026nbsp;\u003C/p\u003E","Awards":null,"HasAlbums":false,"HasPortraits":false,"HasRelationships":false,"HasArticles":false,"HasDepictedPlaces":false,"HasLetters":false,"HasLibraryItems":false,"HasProducts":false,"HasSignatures":false,"HasVideos":false,"HasMapLocations":false,"TotalArtworks":null}
