Landscapes by Arnold Chang (Zhang Hong): A Retrospective and Recent Acquisitions (張洪山水畫回顧展)

This installation reviews the artistic career of Arnold Chang (张洪) (Zhang Hong, American, born 1954) and celebrates the museum’s recent acquisition by Chang, Secluded Valley in the Cold Mountains, a pivotal work that marks his breakthrough as an international contemporary ink artist. Showcasing 18 works by the artist, plus the CMA’s Number 5, 1950 (1950) by Jackson Pollock, the exhibition explores Chang’s formative years, which eventually culminate in free and exploratory ways that include the use of photography and color.
