About Work

[You Are the Beautiful Flower -- Moon and Train & Indistinct Thoughts & Inside Out] is a piece of Tsong's You Are the Beautiful Flower Series.

 

Tsong Pu embarked on the art series You Are the Beautiful Flower in 1990, and resumed his work on it in 2007. Comprised of small-scale works and exhibited in sets, every piece of this series not only bears the artist’s signature technique of seal-imprint, but also features the use of photography and mixed-media. Looking from a distance, you’ll say they are little short of paintings; but you’ll find 3D sculptures and photographs on them when you take a close look. The artist’s creative philosophy and artistic style thus manifest themselves in such an ingenious installation of ready-mades.

About Artist

Tsong Pu
Tsong Pu
莊普

Tsong Pu’s career as an artist has spanned nearly 40 years since he returned from Spain in 1981, bringing him an iconic status in the Taiwanese contemporary art scene. More specific, he is not only a minimalist artist in the spotlight, but also a bellwether for material and ideational innovation in the pluralistic genealogy of Taiwanese contemporary art. His achievements and reputation rest as much upon his long-term forward-looking horizons for creation, as upon his brilliant, sui generis philosophy of art evolved from his prolific career over the past four decades.
