Bada Shanren (alias Zhu Da, 1626-1705)
Bada's landscapes are among his most powerful 'calligraphic' explorations of the ink medium. They bring to mind the Cézanne Montagne Sainte-Victoire studies, and go even further in the minimal use of brushtrokes. Together with Shi Tao, Bada Shanren (alias Zhu Da, or Chu Ta) is the Chinese painter who came the closest to a 'modern' approach to painting.

I would like to find poster reproductions of Bada Sharen's work, especially from Flower Studies 1659-1660. Any ideas? rshayes@yahoo.com
