IMAGERIE POPULAIRE CHINOISE DU NOUVEL AN : ENFANT ET POISSON
ANONYMEGood proof, several median folds While the carp symbolizes courage, perseverance, and success in exams; the red fish "jinyu"means gold and wealth.Ca.1950-1970The Chinese New Year print nianhua 年畫 finds its origins in the propitiatory images of Chinese antiquity. It adorned family altars and door leaves with its bright colors until the middle of the 20th century. This practice spread under the Tang Dynasty (618-906) and, with the arrival of Buddhism, broadened its themes to new deities and new pantheons. Then with the new printing techniques developed by the Song (960-1279), the nianhua prints won the family altars of most homes in China. The motifs further diversified under the Qing (1644-1911), incorporating scenes from novels and opera, portraits of women and children, and even satirical content. The print helps attract happiness, drive away evil spirits and protect the year to come. Through its illustrated themes, these prints reflect the customs, state of mind and aesthetic taste of the population. The production of prints continued to suffer from wars and social unrest during the 20th century, and only two or three workshops still existed in the 1940s. After the founding of the People's Republic of China in 1949, local artisans created Suzhou Taohuawu Woodblock New Year Print Society, thus protecting their know-how and perpetuating the tradition as best they can...

His prints are often commissioned by literary circles and others on special occasions: invitations, New Years, commemoration, new theatrical performances, etc. Surimonos are created and addressed to a bourgeois city elite, keen on literature, navigating between classical culture and contemporary entertainment. Freed from commercial constraints, these surimonos are characterized by luxurious prints, using rare metallic pigments and sophisticated printing techniques: embossing, paper polishing, lacquering. The artist enjoys great freedom of expression and artistic interpretation. The value of the surimono is due to the double semantic complexity of the poems and the image.
