About
Why this artist matters now
Walasse Ting was an American painter and printmaker born in Shanghai who worked across oil, watercolor, lithography, and sculpture with a distinctive lyrical sensibility and bold chromatic range. His practice emerged from postwar abstraction while retaining figuration, maintaining a balance between gestural mark-making and representational form across six decades. Ting's approach to color and composition reflected both his engagement with modernist abstraction and a persistent interest in the human figure rendered with expressive intensity.
