Zhou Brothers 1952/1957 -
Born in Guangxi, China and currently based in Chicago, USA, the Zhou Brothers are world-renowned Chinese painters. Both of them were educated in China and started their art career together in 1973, and have been working together ever since. As an artist duo, they create unique, profound and powerful works through their collaboration. Their contribution to the contemporary art of the late 20th century is insignificant and their works have been ranked among the highest of living artists worldwide. In 1985, they reached the pinnacle of contemporary art in China with their abstract paintings and were invited to have a solo exhibition in Chicago. Their style not only belongs to the abstract atmosphere that the West is familiar with, it also carries the mysterious atmosphere of the prehistoric civilization of ancient China. The Zhou Brothers have won numerous awards and honors in their career in the United States and abroad.
