Peter Wu has been engaged in artistic creation for more than 30 years. He has held solo and group art
shows around the world and many of his art works have been collected by collectors in different
countries. Especially in 2003, when his artwork was collected by the municipal government of Lille Mons

The style of Mr. Wu’s works is lyrical and poetic. His works have shown solid foundation of traditional
painting skills. At the same time, the background of oriental culture has deeply influenced the form and
style of his works. He skillfully uses the rules of oriental composition in his works. Elements of eastern
and western aesthetics can be found in his elegant and colorful abstract paintings and some of his
figurative works. The perfect combination of light, texture, and sense of volume, which are the basic
aesthetic demands of visual art, has provided the viewers with pleasant artistic enjoyment, and also
enable viewers to explore the meaning of living and life.
During the past decades, Mr. Wu has explored and experimented different artistic styles that evolved
gradually from the traditional western art. As you can see from his art works, he is an artist that can do
different styles. He has a good performance in all fields of fine art. In other words, he has a perfect
artistic control over various styles and materials in art.
Mr. Wu has received many honors during years of artistic practice. In 2003, due to his excellent
performance in the Sino-French Cultural Year, Mr. Wu was awarded the Medal of Honor France-China
(Medaille D`Honneur France-Chine ) by the Association D`Echanges Artistiques Universels, and was
invited to become the honorary member of the Association of the Universal Artist Exchange (Association
D`Echanges Artistiques Universels) in France.
After coming to the United States in 2016, his art activities is concentrated in the USA. In recent years,
he has been actively participating in various art events in different states of the United States. For
example, as one of the seven invited Chinese artists, Mr. Wu attended the Art Show on Contemporary
Chinese Christian Art hosted by Fuller Theological Seminary in Los Angeles. In 2019, he attended the
biennale seminar and art show of the American Christian Art Exhibition hosted by CIVA. In 2017, he
