Exposition:

Growing up in the North West highlands, Liu Jiu-Tong went through all the vicissitudes of life and developed a strong personality. The rumbling yellow sands, standing on top of the land, standing firm and deep roots in life that reflect reality. With the accumulation of deep culture and homeland nurture, Liu Jiu-Tong came up with his own aesthetics concepts and language. Graduated from the Art Institute of Xi An and influenced by the majestic and grand style of ChangAn art group, Liu Jiu-Tong later worked in Beijing and resided in Shanghai where international cultural exchanges were happening and enabled his art language to evolve rapidly. He revolutionized the traditional realist approach and combined skills from the each and west, he extended the early concrete realist to semi-abstract realist approach. Also deeply influenced by the Shanghai style culture, his artworks were presented with tension and lively rhythm of life.
