Hsieh Mu-Chi’s art practice reflects his ongoing dialogue between contemporary painting and Taiwan’s art history during the nation-building era of the 20th Century. For Hsieh, bold is an understatement, known for his richly layered, colorful paintings, he adeptly interweaves landscape, figure painting, historical as well as contemporary cultural references in a captivating composition. His latest series delves deeper into the heritage of Taiwan’s abstract painting and how contemporary artists today are reinterpreting this legacy. Hsieh’s 2019 solo exhibition was a finalist of the Taishin Art Award, and he was recipient the 2021 CTBC Painting Prize Merit Award, with his work acquired by the CTBC Foundation for Arts and Culture collection.
