Yue Huang

Huang Yue (born 1960, Beijing) is a Chinese artist. Huang Yue is a central figure in the development of Chinese oil painting and is one of China's most renowned contemporary artists. Huang Yue was graduated from the Beijing Film Academy in 1982 with a fine arts major. From 1982 to 2010, about two hundred works of Huang Yue have been collected by domestic and foreign celebrities.^ "黄月花鸟油画个展" [Painting Exhibition of Yellow Flowers]. sina.com (from Beijing Times).

Bird and flower oil painting became Huang Yue's signature genre and art focus in 2000. Before that, most depictions of bird and flower in both east and west paintings were mostly either still life or as background of portrait paintings, or drawn in their innate nature status. Huang Yue's paintings, however, are of essential difference. His paintings take the objects, aka birds and flowers as a symbol, to reflect mankind spirit, sensation, and ideology. Its concept and manifestation differs from traditional Chinese bird and flower drawings, but also differs with those of the western counterpart, creating a brand new visual conceptual oil painting genre—Huang Yue Bird and Flower Oil Painting.
