Place: Tsereteli Art Gallery, 19 Prechistenka street, Moscow
The Russian Academy of Arts and X-Power Gallery present a display of paintings by Lee Sun Don, a world renowned master of painting from Taiwan. In 2008, he won over 40 international awards and became a member of 12 international art associations. To quote the artist himself, creative work for him is a spiritual and intellectual comprehension of mysteries of the Universe.
Lee Sun Don is a founder of a new “totem” art direction. He includes in his creative process “totems” – images symbolizing the wisdom of ancient civilizations. The master draws inspiration in the Chinese culture, literature and philosophy. In many of his canvases one can sense episodes and fragments from the Buddhist treatises. The artist’s paintings result from his tense inner work and thoughts of the world order.
The master uses his original style and medium, due to which his canvases embody a unique energy of the balanced Universe. They reflect a harmony between the heaven and earth and awaken the best human qualities: nobleness; yearning for perfection and mercy. Everyone who looks at his colorful paintings has a feeling of pacification.
The creative work of Lee Sun Don is based on the artist’s firm belief in his mission to give people light, beauty and good through his “totem” canvases.
