Autorenporträt
Wise Su a singularly appealing and mysterious surrealist painter. Born in China, he studied art and architecture in art school and university and late received a master's and doctorate degrees in the US. His artworks were exhibited over the world, and he was an art professor at three universities. He experienced two different social systems. Under the Chinese dictatorship of the first half of his life, people did not have basic rights and freedom. During the Cultural Revolution, the people suffered injustice and inhumane persecution. In the second half of his life, he is in the US and happily breathing the fresh air of universal values: freedom, democracy, and justice. As an artist, he can finally express his heart, beliefs, and ideas freely! With the help of his deep understanding of Eastern and Western culture, his postmodern surrealist artworks can transcend space and time with scenes people have never seen before but feel familiar with.
