Education
editIn 1918, he entered the Taiwan Governor-General's National Language School. By 1922, he graduated and began teaching at Fengyuan Public School (Fengyuan Kōgakkō). In 1924, he was accepted by the Normal Education Division in Painting of theTokyo School of Fine Artstogether withTan Teng-pho,and received instruction from Tanabe Itaru.
During his lifetime, Liao nurtured many talents and was respected in the art community. In March 1927, he graduated from the Tokyo School of Fine Arts.
Work and public life
editAfter his graduation, he returned to Taiwan to teach art at the private Presbyterian Secondary School and the Girl’s Presbyterian Secondary School both located in Tainan.
Also in 1927, his worksFemale NudeandStill Lifewere selected for the 1st Taiwan Art Exhibition (Taiten); his later works were also selected for the same exhibition in successive years. In 1928, his workCourtyard with Banana Treeswas selected for the Imperial Art Exhibition (Teiten). Afterwards, his works were selected several times for the Teiten and the Ministry of Education Art Exhibition (Shin Bunten).
An active member of the art community, Liao was involved with art organizations such as the Chih-Yang Western Painting Society, the Chidao Association, and the Tai-Yang Art Society. Moreover, between 1932 and 1934, he served as a juror for the Taiten and, from 1946, he served as a juror for the Taiwan Provincial Art Exhibition. In 1947, he began teaching at Taiwan Provincial Normal College (later changed toNational Taiwan Normal University).
Liao Chi-chun’s works consist primarily of landscapes and still lifes. His early works focus especially on scenes from Southern Taiwan. During the 1950s and 1960s, his paintings demonstrated a bold use of color, as he began using bright and saturated reds, greens, yellows, and blues in his work. At the same time, the subjects of his paintings became more simplified. His worksTainan Confucian TempleandSouthern Gateare representative works from this period.
In 1962, he was invited by the U.S. Department of State to visit Europe and America for a year, and held his first public exhibition in 1970 after returning from the United States. This exhibition demonstrated his successful integration of abstractionism into his painting style. His works from later years make use of bolder lines along with vivid and florid colors, demonstrating an unrestrained style. The objects in his paintings maintain a balance between figurative and abstract forms. Representative works from this style include:Yeliu Landscape(1972),Lion Dance(1973),Pintung Harbor(1975).[citation needed]
