| INTRODUCTION |
The Exhibition of Paintings,
Caligraphies and Seals of the grand Master Qi Baishi is finally presented in Macau by the
Macau Chinese Culture and Arts Association. The purpose of this exhibition is to introduce
to the Macau residents and people from different parts of the world the graceful Chinese
culture and create an opportunity for appreciation and learning of the Chinese art. The
exhibit includes sixty paintings and caligraphies and forty seals by Master Qi which are
from the collection of the Hunan Provincial Museum. During the middle of December last
year, leading members from the Association visited Hunan Province to select items for
exhibition. The birthplace of the Master was completely covered with snow and there was
nothing more than a few huts. How hard it must have been for the Master to learn and to
become a great painter! With the cordial support from the Hunan Provincial Museum and the
Museum of Macau, one hundred pieces of Qi's works are being exhibited over a period of one
month. The University of Macau has gratefully given the sponsorship for the edition of an
exhibition catalogue. |
