Georgette Chen

Georgette Chen is considered an exceptional figure in Asian art, being simultaneously a highly accomplished painter of tremendous ability as well as a strong-willed independent female who steadfastly carved a unique identity amidst the male-dominated arena of 20th century art.  While frequently identified as being part of the 'Nanyang School'- the style of art synonymous with the first-generation Chinese émigré artists to Singapore, who flocked to the artistic hotbed of the Nanyang Academy of Fine Arts (NAFA) - Chen is also indisputably a Sino-Parisian artist, having spent much of her early life in France.  By comparison to other artists of her generation who began their training in the Orient while looking to the West for modernist inspiration; Chen's artistic foundations originated in Paris and she spent much time looking East-wards for her iconic subject matters of beautifully rendered plein-airs or Cézanne-esque still lifes of localized subjects.
