“I listen to the universe, men, the east, and the west in mother nature. They are my inspirations which bring out the poetic feelings and intent. Art creation is pure and spontaneous and it resembles Chinese Daoism teaching that creation is "the pouring out of the romantic feeling in your heart."
--- Chu The Chun

In 1956, Chu Teh Chun visited the final exhibition of the last works of Nicolas de Stael at the Musée d'art Moderne national. Stael’s bold movement in using vivid colors and liberal style moving between concrete and abstract was influential of Chu’s abstract creation. Abstract Expressionism struck the Paris art world in 1950 and inspired Chu to discard the restraints of forms and began to create abstract art works. This 《Untitled》blends western painting skills and Chinese literati essence. The lines are like clouds and tides that shift with rhythm, they brought out the poetic affection of the artist. Chinese traditional water ink painting spirits can be seen in this western abstract style artwork.
