A mixed media painting on canvas depicting a still life with flowers. Signed, Chen, lower left. Additionally inscribed, Georgette Chen, on the backside. Georgette Chen, Chinese, French, 1907 to 1992, is considered an exceptional figure in Asian art, being simultaneously a highly accomplished painter of tremendous ability as well as a strong-willed independent female who steadfastly carved a unique identity amidst the male dominated arena of 20th century art. While frequently identified as being part of the Nanyang School, the style of art synonymous with the first generation Chinese emigre artists to Singapore, who flocked to the artistic hotbed of the Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts NAFA. Chen is also indisputably a Sino Parisian artist, having spent much of her early life in France. By comparison to other artists of her generation who began their training in the Orient while looking to the West for modernist inspiration; Chens artistic foundations originated in Paris and she spent much time looking East wards for her iconic subject matters of beautifully rendered plein airs or Cezanne esque still lifes of localized subjects. One of a kind artwork.
