Lu Rong-Chen was born in Pingtung, Taiwan. He moved to Paris in the 90’s to pursue his passion for art. He transferred nearly twenty years of knowledge and experiences overseas into his work. He once said, “the magic of art can be felt when one is immersed in the quality of life,” the beauty of the floral city and its rich culture, would quickly absorbs one’s mind. Creation is a combination of lifestyle and taste; during his time in Paris, he learned from artist and mentor Zao Wou-Ki, together they prolonged the wisdoms explored by painters of the past, although their inspiration was mostly from realism, they were more influenced by the Lyrical Abstraction of the 1960s. Behind Lu’s brushstrokes are rich sentiments and emotions.   

The composition of “A Purple Movement” convey a strong and solid structure. The interplay of light and shadow performs a piece of harmonious melody. The painter skillfully incorporated wet and dry-brushworks, the magnificent colors dances to the harmony of his paintbrush, in search of spiritual imageries and dreams. The artist said, “I cannot explain the purpose of a dot, line or a red surface in my painting, but I do know that it is a harmonious rhythm and sensation to my heart.” The creative process is the result of reflection, it it a spontaneous and unrestraint manifestation. The colorful presentation is a concentrated treasured fragment of Lu Rong-Chen’s life, allowing the viewers infinite reveries.
