Tchan Fou-li has dedicated himself to raising pictorial photography to poetic levels since 1950s and later was keen to promote a "Composite-style of photography and painting", inviting many famous Chinese painters to collaborate with him. His work, "First Sign of Autumn", was embellished by Huang Yongyu. By blending Eastern and Western cultures, Tchan has established a unique "Tchan Style" that mixes poetic elements and traditional Chinese cultural flavour.   Close
