The Urban Pulse of Old Dreams: New Work by Zhu Hong

Zhu Hong, Sims Avenue, 2016, Oil on canvas, 42 x 60 cm

The Urban Pulse of Old Dreams is the latest solo exhibition by Zhu Hong. On showcase are 20 oil paintings that explore the distinctive charms of shophouse architecture, paying homage to its heritage, beauty and relevance to Singapore’s renewed landscape. Already popular for his vibrant renditions of local landscapes in watercolour and acrylic on canvas, this new series is a result of Zhu Hong’s virgin attempt at plein-air oil painting of local street scenes, marking a new artistic milestone in his career.

Zhu Hong (b.1969, Dalian, China) has been living in Singapore since 1997 and is currently a Singapore citizen. He holds a degree in Architecture and has previously worked in interior design, architectural design and event design before becoming a full-time artist in 2011. He is a member of Singapore Watercolour Society and has exhibited in Singapore and Shanghai.
