Year: Circa 1970 // This untitled lithograph by Chu Teh-Chun, created around 1970, combines expressive abstract forms with delicate hints of color. Dominated by large, gestural black brushstrokes, the composition has an organic and flowing quality, reminiscent of natural landscapes or towering rock formations. Splashes of red, blue, and green emerge from the left side, adding vibrant accents against the monochromatic background, and suggesting the presence of life or movement within the shadowy forms. Chu Teh-Chun’s work often merges Eastern calligraphic influences with Western abstract expressionism, creating a harmonious interplay between spontaneity and structure. This limited edition piece, one of only 90, exemplifies his unique style that captures a meditative, almost lyrical abstraction.

What is late modernism?
Late Modernism refers to the continuation and evolution of Modernist principles in art, architecture, and literature from the mid-20th century into the late 20th century. This movement maintains a focus on form, abstraction, and the rejection of traditional styles, but it often incorporates more complexity and ambiguity compared to early Modernism. Late Modernism explores themes such as alienation, identity, and the fragmentation of reality, reflecting the social and cultural shifts of the post-war period. It is seen in the works of architects like Louis Kahn and artists like Francis Bacon, who pushed the boundaries of Modernism while responding to the changing world around them.
