To little pay taxes, we signed buying homes funds are 800,000 Yuan contracts and handle the net to sign the procedure. We have dispute in the fulfillment contract, Wang proposed that takes the actual cost 1.2 million Yuan as the cardinal number computation penalty, but I think that should take 800,000 Yuan as the basis computation penalty.

: Which share should take as the standard?

Attorney Liu Xiao: You have signed two contracts, 1.2 million Yuan contracts are your real meaning indicated that is legitimate effective; But 800,000 Yuan contracts are you to avoid taxes to sign the false contract, belongs to malicious collusion which “Law of contract” stipulated that the hurt national interest situation, therefore, this contract, even if has handled the net to sign also invalid. When both sides have the dispute, should rest on the real contract to process.

Aiming to present a myriad of different paper-cutting styles, the
Third International Eisteddfod of Paper Cutting Arts has begun
collecting works and essays from amateurs of the craft from around
the world ahead of its opening in August in

Datong, Shanxi Province. 

Professor Chen Jing, the expo’s executive director and chief of
the Nanjing University Folk Art Department, said that the art of
paper-cutting had emanated from China to gain footholds in other
countries such as the US and Japan. Its international popularity
has soared with over 500 foreign students now having come to study
the art form under Prof. Chen.

To ensure its continuing status, the third expo will present
works from around the world. Each artistic entry must be entirely
original, while academic contributions must stand out by presenting
a fresh opinion. The collecting will end on June 10, 2007, before
which time submissions will be continuously accepted. 

The two previous editions of the Eisteddfod were held in Nanjing
in 2004 and in Hohhot in 2006, with the third set to be sponsored
by the Chinese People’s Association for Friendship with Foreign
Countries.

As a very distinctive example of Chinese handicrafts,
paper-cutting can trace its origins back to the 6th century. It was
originally used by women who sought to paste golden and silver foil
cuttings in their hair during temple proceedings, while men also
used during sacred rituals. They then moved to become a popular
decoration for gates and windows during festivals and they remain
so today, particularly in rural settings.

Scissors and an engraving knife are traditionally used as
cutting implements in the art. The skill and talent going into the
craft are on full display when one witnesses the amazing detail and
lifelike appearance of the natural plants and animals depicted.

Wherever he goes, Chinese photographer Deng Wei brings his camera.
“The world is seen by everyone’s eyes. And my camera’s viewfinder
is like my third eye,” Deng said. The 48-year-old rarely stops
shooting, but last month he was “ordered” by his assistants to put
his worn-out Nikon FM2 camera into a glass box for his latest photo
show at the National Art Museum of China in Beijing.

The 100 exhibited portrait photos, selected by a panel of
experts from Deng’s voluminous portfolio from the past three
decades, have been donated to China’s top art museum.

Shot in the style of Rembrandt and using classical lighting and
color effects, Deng portrays the personalities and life stories of
people in every photo. The result is a universe of images that
lingers in viewers’ minds.

The list of big names whose portraits appear in the exhibition
includes Chinese scholar Qian Zhongshu, late Israeli Prime Minister
Yizhak Rabin, Chinese-American physicist and Nobel Prize winner
C.N. Yang, Canadian photographer Yousuf Kaarsh, Norwegian explorer
Liv Arnnesen and Zambian lawyer M. Chona.

Also featured are ordinary people such as a New York City
teenager, a Tibetan grandmother and a Chinese soldier.

“I have traveled afar to capture people in different parts of
the world. Now I would like to share with people in the motherland
the world that I’ve seen,” Deng said at the opening ceremony for
the show, which ended on April 26.

“This donation and exhibition does not mark an ending but
rather, a new start for my career,” Deng said.

He said that he kept for himself only about 300 photos that he
believes are well-done, and he destroyed three rolls of negatives
he considered flawed right before the exhibition’s opening.

Deng Wei’s works include The Traveler
(pictured top), British dramatist Tom Stoppard (below right) and
The Old Grandma (below).

Over the last few decades, the photographer “has accomplished a
mission that many of us considered impossible,” said Feng Yuan,
vice-chair of All China Federation of the Arts and Literary Circles
and former director of the museum. It was Feng who asked Deng to
donate his photos about three years ago.

And “his fruitful efforts would do so much to enhance mutual
understanding among Chinese people and people from around the
world,” Feng said.

But Deng calls himself “simply a man who fulfilled his
dreams”.

Born in 1959 in Beijing, Deng cherished a deep love for art -
especially drawing and painting – from an early age. At 15, he
seized an opportunity to learn from master Chinese landscape
painter Li Keran. And during his university years, Deng rubbed
shoulders with a variety of influential cultural figures in China,
thanks to the endorsement of his father Deng Yuwen, a scholar of
ancient Chinese literature.

But Deng didn’t begin to learn photography until 1978, when he
became a classmate of Zhang Yimou, Chen Kaige, Gu Changwei and Tian
Zhuangzhuang. After graduation, these talents garnered world
reputations as key members of the “Fifth Generation” of Chinese
film directors.

“Although I majored in filmmaking and have done several
prize-winning works for film and television, I have found that
photography fits me best, because this career allows me to better
comprehend the realities of life,” Deng said.

After graduating in 1982, Deng stayed on at the university for
several years as a teacher.

However, “with each passing day, I grew tired of the routine and
predictable life that laid ahead. I hoped I could do something
bigger and more exciting,” Deng recalled. 

In 1990, he left his post and embarked on a difficult journey to
photograph world-eminent figures.

But he had to spend a long time laying the foundations for this
dream career.

He knew that he would have to familiarize himself with the
lighting conditions he would encounter, as well as the characters
of his subjects. So, he read everything he could get his hands on
about his subjects in order to effectively capture their essences
during the short time periods he was allowed for each shoot.

At the encouragement of his father, Deng transformed a
years-long project into an album entitled A Photographic Record of
Eminent Cultural Figures of China in 1986. The project fuelled his
zeal for photography and sealed his lifetime commitment to the
trade. He decided then and there that the path of a filmmaker was
not the road for him.

The album was a hit at home and abroad, and many took it as a
sign that Chinese intellectuals had regained their positions of
social esteem after a period of humiliation during the “cultural
revolution” (1966-76), Deng recalled.

After the album’s publication, Deng cast his eyes on
world-eminent figures he knew only through TV news and newspaper
reports. 

Since 1991, Deng has visited and photographed more than 100
famous figures traveling in Asia, North America and Europe.

“There are still more world eminent figures that I want to take
photos of,” Deng said, citing such names as Vladimir Putin and
Fidel Castro.

But he also planned to shoot a series of portraits of master
Chinese craftsmen, whom he considers torchbearers of many of the
nation’s vanishing forms of cultural heritage.

“These people may not be known to people outside of their
villages. But they have also made contributions to our cultures,
and deserve my respect and photographic depiction,” Deng said.

Exhibition of Chinese paitings in Brussels attracts thousands of
Belgian, May 3, 2007.

The atmosphere was more like an intimate party than an art
exhibition. The grey-haired artist sat on a straw mat-covered
platform in the middle of room, writing Chinese calligraphy before
an audience. The smell of seafood broth and stewed pork drifted
through the air as three purple clay cookers steamed away.

As the artist finished his work with chaotic and unfettered
strokes, a member of the audience blurted out: “What did you write
there? Doesn’t look like Chinese calligraphy to me.”

“I don’t know. Call it an abstract calligraphy if you want to,”
replied the 52-year-old Yu Peng, a contemporary painter from
Taiwan. He smiled as he lit his tobacco pipe and drew a sip of rice
wine from a dark-brown bowl.

“Each piece of calligraphy or painting is an expression of
desire living in my heart secretly,” he said.

Desire is apparently the dominant motif of Yu’s artwork,
especially in his series of paintings entitled Landscapes of
Desire, which are on show at the Sunshine (Sanshang) Art Beijing
Gallery near the Wuyuan Bridge of the Fifth Ring Road until May 15.
His painting style is a frightening blend of the modern and the
traditional.

Departing from the norms of classical Chinese painting in terms
of aesthetics, Yu’s depictions of landscapes, rivers and mountains
are quite subversive to the orthodox values of Chinese paintings
and cultural morality. He applies the imagined past to forge a
critical dialogue about people’s attitudes and ideologies towards
the present society of desire and gluttony.

According to the traditional school of Chinese paintings,
landscape painting is an overwhelming genre that represents an
ideal realm where escapist scholars could seek refuge or solitude.
Human figures are normally small, if there are any.

Yu, however, takes landscape motif painting as artistic
territory to explore his secular lust and passion the driving power
behind all things, but a taboo for Chinese scholarly painters. Just
as Picasso saw women’s breasts shaped in a horizontal figure eight,
Yu sees food, drink, and erotic men and women as muscular mountains
and feminine rivers.

He depicts nude men and women as hallucinatory rivers and
mountains, making his landscapes look like erotic scenarios.

His illusive landscapes are, in fact, re-imagining the ancient
Song Dynasty (960-1279) landscapes in very fine lines, which allude
to the past while depicting the present as a purgatory of desire.
And, they can also be seen as Yu’s personal vision of the
paradoxical world today.

“On the one hand,” Yu says, “people are trying to get rich to
meet their endless material desires. On the other hand, we know
material lust is against the value of things money cannot buy, such
as self-fulfilment.”

Unfortunately, he says, “No one, including monks, can escape
this secular world full of temptations. In my heart, there is
always an itching demon that I cannot get rid of but only try to
express through paintings.”

Some of Yu’s paintings are becoming art collectors’ favorites
and have sold well. One of his vertical landscape paintings was
sold right after being hung on the wall of the Sunshine Art
Gallery.

Huguo would be indistinguishable from most other villages in the
Xindu District of Chengdu, capital of Southwest China’s Sichuan Province, were it not for Chen Jiagui,
a 62-year-old farmer-painter whose home has become a kind of salon
for art lovers from around the world.

Chen started painting when he was a child. Though poverty
prevented him from getting more than a primary school education, he
has met with many famous painters in Beijing, Guangzhou, Kunming
and Wuhan over the past two decades to learn their craft.

his trip to Chengdu last Sunday.Li Yang

 

Unlike most traditional Chinese artists, Chen does not name his
paintings. His work is in the style of tachisme, an abstract style
that relies on random splashes and lines of paint.

“Different people may have different ideas about my paintings.
For example, one person might see a star when he looks at a dot on
one of my paintings, while another person will see a musical note,”
he said.

His fans treasure this ambiguity.

“Although they have different interpretations of his paintings,
most visitors to his home are surprised that a farmer can produce
such nice abstract paintings. Some describe the dots and lines on
his paintings as an expression of harmonious co-existence,” said
Song Xi, a fan and journalist with Sichuan Television Station.

Song interviewed Chen several years ago and has accompanied many
visitors to his home ever since.

Chen said he sometimes draws inspiration for his paintings from
his dreams. A drawing table positioned next to his bed is evidence
of this muse.

“Whenever I find inspiration from sleep, I get up and paint even
if it is the dead of winter,” he said.

Earlier this year, a friend from Chengdu took six of Chen’s
paintings to Paris for an exhibition of Chinese art work.
Exhibition goers were thrilled by his work.

After learning Chen’s story, Lawrence Speer, an American
journalist with BNA, a Washington DC-based business consultancy,
visited him a week ago during a trip to Chengdu with his French
wife and their French friend.

Speer said Chen’s paintings embodied the painter’s thoughts.
When Speer offered to buy one of his paintings, Chen gave him one
as “a gift from a Chengdu farmer”.

Song said Chen is always generous to visitors despite his
poverty.

A small village, Wanggongzhuang, in Minquan County of Henan
Province, has recently become known as “China’s number one tiger
painting village”, for 700 out of the 1,000 villagers there are
skilled in painting tigers.

Their works are not only popular in China, but also sell hot in
countries and regions in Southeast Asia, Korea, Japan, and America,
with the gross sale per year amounting to 6,000,000 yuan.

According to Dahe Daily, hand drawings of pine and crane, carp,
the God of Wealth, and the Kitchen God are very popular in areas
around Wanggongzhuang in the Eastern Hean Plain. Previously, these
New Years paintings were only sold at country market fairs.
However, in the late 1970s, some open-minded peasants began selling
their exquisite works on the market. Wang Peishuang, who has become
rich on this business, used to be among the “Four Tiger Kings”,
four well-known tiger painters at that time. By now，Wang has an
income of 300 thousand to 400 thousand yuan every year and has been
running a painting training school. Wang has also become a member
of Traditional Chinese Painters Association of China and Henan
Artists Association. His works have won many prizes in some
provincial art exhibitions.
