Excellent conditions. Zhou Zhiwei He was born in Shangai in 1954 and started to paint when he was 9 years old. he was a disciple of two famous chinese painters yu yun-jie e liu kemin and completed his studies at the academy of art in shangai. He has been living in italy since 1980, where he attended famous contemporary artists such as Pietro Annigono, Giacomo Manzù and Gregorio Sciltian. he mainly enhanced his technique in Rome in the studio of Riccardo Tommasi Ferroni, one of the great masters of contemporary figurative painting his realism is not limited inside the foundations of his own culture. he continues his research and study of the work of the greatest masters in the main european museums. his life is a continuous pilgrimage between the western and the eastern world. he considers himself a guest in both worlds. he likes blending them. His thought has roots in philosophical Taoism. “tao”, that means life is the supreme unity where oppositions of life find unison: the good one (yang) and the dissolving one (yin). His works are often of great size. the tempest, for example is 250 x 550cm and venetian caprice 220x450, the autumn of Ulysses 280x550. Professor Mario de Micheli, outstanding italian art critic wrote:” the plot of his entire work is rich in imagination, skill, experience. he reveals his poetic and technical secrets without difficulty, because in fact they are not secret, they are absolutely evident. in other words he paints with extreme simplicity….” Most of his works have been realized in his studios in Rome and Vienna. at present he lives in Padua and works both in Italy and China. less
