From an approach that long remains unconscious, but becoming clear later on. He built the \u201cMelody of China\u201d. The inspiration is the typical musical instruments, played by ladies wearing traditional costumes.<br \/>\nThe shape and the sound, so particular of those instruments, ancient and traditional, define the mystery of the Imperial China said Dominique.<br \/>\nThe goal was to keep a \u201cChinese\u201d rendering flavor, preserving the charm and the mystic mood, although using a different technic. Here he chooses hard pastel, versus a classic Chinese watercolor.<\/p>\n<p>The collection includes 12 art works, average dimensions 30\u2019\u2019x20\u2019\u2019 (75cmx50cm). Medium: pastel on various papers. The instruments include:<br \/>\nPipa, Liuqin, Erhu, Dizi, Bawu, Yueqin, Ruanqin, Guzheng.<\/p>\n<p>In October, Confucius institute, SUNY state university of New York will be hosting his first exhibition.<\/p>\n<p>For more information, please visit<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/confuciusbusiness.suny.edu\/\" target=\"_blank\">http:\/\/confuciusbusiness.suny.edu\/<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>10\/22\/2014 6pm-8pm SUNY Global Center 116 E 55th St, New York, NY 10022, United States<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":29,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[13],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-48244","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-stay-connected-to-the-latest-local-events"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.asianinny.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/48244","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.asianinny.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.asianinny.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.asianinny.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/29"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.asianinny.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=48244"}],"version-history":[{"count":4,"href":"http:\/\/www.asianinny.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/48244\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":48269,"href":"http:\/\/www.asianinny.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/48244\/revisions\/48269"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/www.asianinny.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=48244"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.asianinny.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=48244"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/www.asianinny.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=48244"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
