SUCCESS STORIES: CHU THE CHUN
Abstract artist Chu's renown has long spread across the European art world. During his young years in 1957, he won a silver prize at a spectacular event "Paris Spring Salon". Forty years later, at the end of 1997, he was elected lifetime Fellow of the French Institute of Arts, and became the first Chinese who got this award. He is honored the French Art Academician of France, which is the up most glory in the French Cultural and Art Academy, with a top mission to suggest for government affairs in Culture and Art to assist the related policies to be formulated. As in year 2006, he was awarded a Prize for outstanding people by European Union.

Some said Chu's paintings took in the western style. But by taking a closer look, it was actually filled with oriental release. He has laid a solid foundation in calligraphy and thus is apt at making his unique character expressions appear from his inexact paintings as well as perfecting them through color, composition and painting methods. It renders a certain kind of permeability rarely touched on ordinary oil paintings.
