A horse and rider emerge from abstracted gestures in gold, indigo and turqouise in this fluid and aptly titled painting "Pianissimo" by Andrew Lui.
Lui (b. Guangzhou, China) studied at the Ontario College of Art before traveling to the UK, and Italy. In Florence, he was drawn to Uccello's dynamic Battle of San Romano (c. 1456). This three painting series continues to inspire Lui's themes of voyage and change.
Lui is represented in multiple public, corporate and private collections in Canada, Europe and China: Musée d'art contemporain, Musée de Dijon, France, L'Ecole des Beaux Arts, Bruxelles, Pallazo Strozzi, Florence, Musée National des Beaux-Arts du Quebec, Musée des Beaux-Arts de Sherbrooke, Grimsby Art Gallery, Robert McLaughlin Art Gallery, Art Gallery of Stratford, Stratford, Coburg Art Gallery, Rodman Hall Art Centre, Canadiana Foundation (Art Collection of Governor General of Canada). He is part of a large number of private and corporate collections, including HSBC of Canada, DKNY and Sun Life Insurance.
