The artist Chunqing Huang\u2019s (b. Heze, China, 1974) Painters\u2019 Portraits<\/em> are anything but conventional likenesses. The portraits of artists including Louise Bourgeois, Anselm Kiefer, Martin Kippenberger and Imi Knoebel are acts of gestural-expressive abstraction and probing visual studies of the artist\u2019s own recollections. Chunqing Huang paints meditations on art itself, systematically working through the vocabulary of abstract painting from Germany to the United States. The series Painter\u2019s Portrait II<\/em> features Chunqing Huang\u2019s thirty most recent works from a series the artist has been transferring to canvases measuring 40 x 30 cm since 2016.<\/p>\n Painter\u2019s Portrait II<\/em> represents Chunqing Huang\u2019s personal reflections on her influences, from Impressionism to expressive tendencies in abstract painting, which now make its d\u00e9but in book form. The catalogue showcases the portraits, each of which is distinguished by its own gestural quality and individual palette.<\/p>\n Chunqing Huang studied painting and interdisciplinary art at the St\u00e4delschule, Frankfurt am Main, where Wolfgang Tillmans and Peter Angermann were her teachers, and graduated from Hermann Nitsch\u2019s master class. The German-Chinese artist\u2019s work has been featured in numerous solo and group exhibitions. A first selection from the Painter\u2019s Portrait<\/em> series was on view at Kunsthalle Wiesbaden and Museum Wiesbaden in the summer of 2021; the catalogue Painter\u2019s Portrait II<\/em> is released in conjunction with her exhibition of the same title at 68projects, Berlin.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The artist Chunqing Huang\u2019s (b.
