Hardcover. Condition: Fine. A LARGE-FORMAT CHINESE PAINTING PORTFOLIO PRESENTING MODERN INK WORKS THROUGH A STATE-ACADEMIC LENS FOR BOTH DOMESTIC AND INTERNATIONAL AUDIENCES -BRIDGING TRADITION AND MODERN PRESENTATION Folio; 15 inches tall (slipcase 15.5 inches). Hardcover in original white cloth, front stamped in gilt with Chinese characters. Housed in original orange paper-covered slipcase. Dust jacket present. Text in Chinese and English. Issued by Ren min mei shu chu ban she (People's Fine Arts Publishing House), a major state art publisher. Illustrated throughout with 121 plates, both color and black-and-white, presenting a curated selection of modern Chinese ink painting. Artists represented include Yu Jigao (21 works), Ye Wei (23), Gai Maosheng (23), and Li Kuhan (54), among others associated with the Xi'an Art Institute. The volume reflects mid-20th-century Chinese art publishing, where traditional brush techniques-landscape, floral, and figure studies-are presented within a modern institutional framework. The editorial role of Liu, identified as a senior academic figure, suggests the work was intended not only as a visual survey but as a representative statement of contemporary practice within an academic and possibly cultural-diplomatic context. The bilingual presentation supports this reading, positioning the book for both domestic and international audiences. The large format and emphasis on full-page reproductions reinforce its function as a display-oriented portfolio rather than a purely textual study. CONDITION: Slipcase with moderate handling wear; rubbing to orange paper covering; minor separation at title panel. Book and dust jacket exceptionally well preserved. Bindings tight and square. Text and plates clean; colors strong and vivid. A highly presentable example. HISTORICAL SIGNIFICANCE - This volume reflects a period in which Chinese art institutions sought to formalize and present contemporary ink painting within a modern publishing and exhibition framework. It illustrates how traditional visual language-rooted in centuries of brushwork and composition-was preserved while being repositioned through state-supported academies and international-facing publications. As such, it stands at the intersection of artistic continuity and cultural presentation during a transformative period in Chinese art history. Subjects: Chinese painting, Xi'an Art Institute, Liu editor, Yu Jigao, Ye Wei, Gai Maosheng, Li Kuhan, ink painting, 20th-century Chinese art, bilingual art publications, cultural presentation, art monograph, exhibition-style portfolio, illustrated book, modern Chinese art. …

He had extensive work experience in many countries including China, India, Guatemala, and Hungary. He worked in collaborative relationships with Chinese health officials since his first visit to China in 1980, as leader of the US-PRC Public Health - Health Services Research Team. His work included US-PRC bilateral projects, World Bank missions and World Health Organization consultations. He was an Honorary Professor of the Chinese Academy of Preventive Medicine and Honorary Advisor 001 of the Chinese CDC ; presented by Chen Chun-ming, possibly 陳春明 (1941-2024), a traditional bamboo carving technique master from Taichung, Taiwan ; Fang's ink-wash bamboo paintings are grounded primarily in the style of Wen Tong, while adopting the structural approach of Xia Zhongzhao. What makes his work truly remarkable is his ability to infuse his paintings with his own spiritual essence and character, thereby forging a unique style that epitomizes the literati painting tradition. There is a profound connection between the artist and his art; while countless individuals throughout history have painted bamboo, few have succeeded in capturing its humanity, spirit, and grandeur—qualities that were likely cultivated in Fang through his administrative experience and the era in which he lived. 方的墨竹主要以文同為基礎，再以夏仲昭為體。可貴的是先生能將其靈氣與人格融入畫中，自成一格，是標準文人畫典型。人與畫的關係非常密切，古今多少人畫竹，但能畫出人性、靈氣、大氣者不多，而且可能是行政的歷練和時代的環境培養出他的大氣和格局。; FINE/FINE.

"Published in 1956 as publicity material for the new engineering projects depicted, this book was also sold abroad through the China International Bookstore. The design of the book's cover, printed in green with repeating stylized waves, stands in stark contrast to the rather austere, predominantly black-and-white photographs inside, featuring dams and navigation locks, sluice gates, and river dredging operations. The term 'water conservancy' is popularly understood to mean not wasting water, but the focus of this book is more in line with China's perennial water issue: how to control water. A country both rich in water resources and subject to frequent floods and droughts, China has always prioritized development of large-scale water management infrastructure."Martin Parr & WassinkLundgren in The Chinese Photobook, p.172.…
