命名为“以书入画-林子平画展”的展览汇集了新加坡著名艺术家林子平先生的水墨画藏品。作品分为乡村美景、怀旧街景、新加坡河印象、环游世界、古树之美和抽象创意书法等6个类别。这次特别的展览还包括特别精选的大型绘画作品。它们展示了林先生处理巨幅纸张与创作具有视觉冲击力的艺术作品的杰出能力。为了强调展览的意义,展览中还收录了林先生分享他的艺术想法的几段视频。 30 年前,画廊负责人赵振强先生开始收集林子平先生的这些画作。他以欢喜的心情与所有艺术爱好者分享这段旅程的成果。

我们希望很快能在画廊与您相会。

Large Paintings 大画集

Muddled Calligraphy writing of 苏轼《水调歌头》by Lim Tze Peng, Paper Size145x227cm
明月几时有, 把酒问青天。
不知天上宫阙,今夕是何年。
我欲乘风归去,又恐琼楼玉宇,高处不胜寒。
起舞弄清影,何似在人间。

转朱阁,低绮户,照无眠。
不应有恨,何事长向别时圆?
人有悲欢离合,月有阴晴圆缺,此事古难全。
但愿人长久,千里共婵娟。
