In Douce quietude A…, Chu used free, uncontrolled brushstrokes to draw high, rugged mountains in the middle of the painting, creating a powerful image. He puts a lot of emphasis on the fluidity and movement of the brushstrokes. Flowing brushstrokes are developed from Chinese calligraphy and feel automated and spontaneous. Comparing this piece of work with that of Russian expressionist Wassily Kandinsky, Kandinsky transformed musical notes into lines, while Chu’s lines resemble Chinese calligraphy…Artist Wu Guanzhong once accurately described Chu’s work as “looking like Western paintings when looking from afar, but when examined closely, they look like Chinese paintings”.
