Lot Essay

Born in 1948 in Beijing, Wang Yong entered Central Academy of Fine Arts in 1979 under the tutelage of Li Keran and Liang Shulian. A consummate painter, calligrapher and seal carver, Wang, in dialogue with the antiquity, reinvigorates the calligraphy of ancient China with renewed mastery and vitality.
