Shang Yang (Chinese: 尚扬; born 1942, former name Shang Nengquan)[1] is a contemporary Chinese painter based in Beijing and is considered one of the most important painters of the life-stream movement.[2] Known for his oriental humanist thought he believes landscapes are living things and puts their spirit into his brushwork.[3] In 1965 he graduated from the Hubei Art Academy, where he then taught for several years. He received his masters from the Hubei Art Academy in 1981. Yang became the Associate President in 1989. Shang Yang became a Professor and the Officer-in-Charge of Fine Arts at the Research Institute of South China Normal University in 1993. Also in 1993, he became the Vice President of the Chinese Art painting Society. Shang Yang has exhibited extensively in China since the 1980s, including at Shanghai Biennale in 1996, and has shown internationally at galleries in London, Paris, Tokyo, St. Petersburg, and Helsinki. Shang Yang's work often appropriates images from traditional Chinese landscape painting, which are screened onto the canvas by a machine; he then distorts the image with graffiti or obtrusive geometrical designs.[4] His works combine avant-garde exploration and solid artistic skill to create unique works of expressionism oil painting.[5]
