Honoring a painter trained in Chinese and Western art-making traditions and embroiled in the throws of China's 20th century political turbulence, the Hood Museum's newest exhibit captures surprising highlights from Fan Tchunpi's prolific career. The Chinese artist, although popular in China and France during her lifetime, has not had her work publicly exhibited since a 1984 retrospective show at the Musee Cernuschi, an Asian art museum in Paris. The Hood show includes just 24 paintings by the artist, but each marks an important development in her personal and professional life, from Fan's training in Paris painting live models and her experiments with avant-garde styles like Impressionism, to her incorporation of ancient Chinese art-making techniques such as ink painting and calligraphy. While mostly a collection of small to midsize oil paintings, the Hood's exhibit includes watercolors, ceramics and photographs as well. The exhibit grew from a chance encounter that Hood Museum director Michael Taylor had with the artist's work while visiting one of her sons in Stoddard.
