Dr. Wang's paintings are created using traditional Chinese brush with Mo ink on cotton paper. Her paintings often reflect a Chinese Taoist emphasis on natural beauty. Based upon this Chinese foundation, Dr. Wang also incorporates painting techniques from other countries such as an Indian Buddhist focus on expression of the mind and a French Impressionist use of color. As a result, her paintings are Chinese in their essence but global in their outlook.
Dr. Lian Wang is currently an assistant professor at Yangzhou University of China and a visiting scholar at Salem State University.
Dr. Wang's exhibition runs from September 1 through September 30 in the Winfisky Gallery, Ellison Campus Center. Gallery hours are Monday - Friday from 10 am to 2 pm. An artist's reception will be held September 15 at 2 pm.
