Yu Hong was born in 1966 in Xi’an, China. In the 1980s she studied oil painting at the Central Academy of Fine Arts (CAFA) in Beijing and graduated with a post-graduate degree from the oil painting department in 1996. Since 1988 she has been a teacher in CAFA’s oil painting department. From the start, Yu Hong received training in Realist painting, which over time would translate into her own individual aesthetic language. The core subject of Yu Hong’s paintings has always been human nature, and how human beings grow and exist in this society, in this world. Those figures, painted down by her brush, express the feelings and self-analysis of people thrown into the reality of society.

Yu Hong’s recent solo exhibitions include “The World of Saha” (2019) at Long Museum (Shanghai), “Garden of Dreams” (2016) at the CAFA Art Museum (Beijing), “Concurrent Realms” (2015) at the Suzhou Museum (Suzhou), “Golden Horizon” (2011) at the Shanghai Art Museum (Shanghai) and “Golden Sky” (2010) at the Ullens Center for Contemporary Art (Beijing). Her work was also featured in “Art and China after 1989: Theater of the World” (2017) at the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum (New York).
