She received her first degree from the Oil Painting Department of the Central Academy of Fine Arts in 1988 in Beijing, where she received a training in the techniques of figural realism. She is routinely named amongst China’s leading female artists. Her works portray the female perspectives and the relationship between the individual and the rapid social changes taking place in China. YU HONG, born in Xi’an (Shaanxi Province) in 1966, is a Chinese contemporary painter works primarily in oil paint (but also in pastels, fabric dye on canvas).
YU HONG became sensitive to facial expressions and body posture. Her paintings combine realistic portraits with surreal environments and colors, with focus on surrealism. Her method of painting has been criticized as seemingly mundane, but she highlights the beauty in the intricacies of daily life. In the history of Chinese art, female point of view was not a viable mode of creation, but her subjects are predominately women. Her subjects consist of herself, friends and family.
