27Biography of Deng Fen |Deng Fen was born in the region of Nanhai, in the Guangdong province of China, to a literary family. Born with many artistic talents, he apprenticed under various scholars and masters of traditional Chinese painting and calligraphy. Deng Fen excelled in painting figures, flowers, birds and landscapes. He was famous for his ability to communicate the spirit and mind of his subjects through his art, whereby his beauties and Buddhist paintings were particularly well known.Deng Fen expanded his artistic talents to include poetry, calligraphy, seal carvings and Cantonese opera music. His operatic aria "Meng Jue hong Lou (Illusion of the Red Chamber)" (1926) was received with great reviews.Deng Fen was a founding member of the Society of Chinese Painting Studies in Guangdong and Hong Kong. In 1929, he was appointed Guangdong's representative at the First Annual National Art Exhibition in Shanghai, China by the Director of Guangdong's Ministry of Education. Four years later, in 1933, he served as principal professor in Chinese painting at the Municipal Art School of Guangzhou.Both Deng Fen and master painter Zhang Daqian were hailed as the best traditional painters thus far, both pushing the limits in the traditional style of Chinese figure painting. It is therefore not surprising that Zhang praised Deng Fen as the "Only Master of Chinese Painting in Guangdong".Biography of Deng Fen (1894-1964)
