We had a wonderful visit to Zhang Hongtu’s studio for our last English class. Hongtu and his wife very graciously opened their studio in Woodside Queens for us. We asked Hongtu questions about his art practice and his past and present life. In his studio we were able to see a model that Hongtu made for his present exhibit at the Queens Museum as well as a painting in progress, works from the Mao series and a set of soy sauce pieces. Snacks and an extended conversation followed. A good time was had by all!
Tuvimos una maravillosa visita al estudio de Zhang Hongtu como nuestra última clase de Inglés. Hongtu y su esposa nos abrieron muy gentilmente su estudio en Woodside Queens. Durante esta visita se formularon preguntas acerca de su práctica artística y su vida pasada y presente. En su estudio, pudimos ver un modelo de maqueta que Hongtu elavoro para su actual exposición en el Museo de Queens, así como una pintura en curso, las obras de la serie de Mao y un conjunto de piezas de salsa de soja. Snacks y una conversación prolongada cerraron esta fantastica visita. Un grato momento para todos!
