By drawing on their roots in traditional Chinese ink-painting, artists such as Zao Wou-ki and Wu Guanzhong redefined the notion of Asian art by seamlessly blending western influences and techniques, while staying true to their identities. The reinterpretation of the aesthetic value of traditional Chinese art infused with a modern spirit has broken down cultural barriers and continues to elevate these artists to ever greater global recognition.
