More information
After moving to Paris in 1952, Walasse Ting was inspired by the CoBrA group, with artists such as Asger Jorn, Karel Appel, and Pierre Alechinsky. However, his move to New York in 1957 meant that Ting became strongly influenced by American pop art and abstract expressionism, which would shape his artistic career forever.
Ting began his career primarily as an abstract artist, but much of his work from the mid-1970s onwards has been described as "popular figuration." His style shifts between thin, calligraphic brushstrokes, splatter painting, and large areas of color with a unique expression, where bright fluorescent colors highlight motifs like women or animals.
Ting's works are found in collections around the world, including the Guggenheim Museum, New York; Museum of Modern Art, New York; Art Institute of Chicago; Tate Modern, London; Centre Pompidou, Paris; and the Hong Kong Museum of Art, to name a few.
