Modern European ink painting

New Ink Art Manifesto by Alfred Freddy Krupa (1996)

New Ink Art movement on East

A late-20st-century, early-21st-century and ongoing movement, Modern ink painting[1] (sometimes called the "New Ink Movement"[2] or the "New Ink Art"[3]) is an emerging style that reaches beyond traditional Asian ink painting in scope and treatment of a minimalist-art. Contemporary ink painting is developing and establishing the recognition it deserves and gaining its own place among the major pictorial works of the world.[4] This global contemporary art movement represents sort of amalgamation of the Western visual art problems and practices with those of East Asia.[5] Lin Fengmian, Xu Beihong, and Wu Guanzhong[6] were revered as the most pioneering Western-trained artists.[7] Lui Shou Kwan (1919-1975) is credited with founding the New Ink Painting Movement. List of notable painters can include Chou Lu Yun, Irene (1924-2011), Chui Tze-Hung (b. 1936), Kan Tai-Keung (b. 1942), Koo Mei, Carrie (b. 1929), Leung But-Yin (b. 1940), Leung Kui-Ting (b.1945), Ng Yiu-Chung (1935-1987), Poon Chun-Wah (b.1936), Wong King-Seng (b. 1928), Yeung Yick-Chung (1921-1981) and others.[8] Lui Shou-kwan and his followers (up to the present times) reinterprets Chinese ink art in the form of Western modernism.

New Ink Art movement on West

The founder of the European/Western variant/contribution[9] to the (mainly Asian) Modern ink painting movement[10][11] is Alfred Freddy Krupa.[12][13][14][15][16] Krupa who is not a follower of Lui Shou-kwan (and in China is called "the Foreign Master"[17]) is doing something essentially opposite/different from Shou Kwan and his group, he reinterprets Western modernism in the form of the Far East ink art.[18] It combines Expressionism, Art Informel, Minimalism, plein air work, Abstract Art (etc.) with a typically East Asian approach (Jürgen Weichardt 2016, Francesco Scagliola 2017, Ante Vranković 2018, Elena Martinique 2019).[19][20][21][22] The original manuscript of Krupa's New Ink Art Manifesto from 1996 is the property of the documenta (exhibition) archiv, records and papers collection in Kassel.[23]
