Detalles del producto

The Chinese-Canadian artist Matthew Wong (1984–2019) employed colour expressively, using thick and dynamically applied paint to instil his personality in his work. Self-taught, he explored Western and Chinese art history himself, finding an important example in the work of Vincent van Gogh.
The two artists gave expression to their inner worlds with a similar immediacy. There are striking parallels, moreover, between the lives of Wong and Van Gogh: both spent a great deal of time searching for their vocation in life before eventually finding it in painting.
The connections between the two artists are examined in detail in this publication through a survey of Matthew Wong’s impressive body of work.

‘I see myself in him. The impossibility of belonging in this world.’ Matthew Wong on Vincent van Gogh
