Artist Quang Ho
Vietnamese-born
American painter, was born in Hue, Vietnam. He immigrated to the United States
in 1975.Painter and illustrator Quang Ho is more interested in representing the
mundane details of his immediate environment than in searching the world for
preconceived artistic content. His diverse subject matter ranges from still
lifes, landscapes, and interiors, to dancers and figures. “Realism and
abstract—it’s all the same to me,” he has said. “The real essence of painting
is the dialogue between shapes, tones, colors, textures, edges, and line.
Everything else follows—including light, form, concepts, personal beliefs, and
inspirations.” Working primarily in oils, watercolors, and pastels, Ho is not
tethered to any particular mode of expression; a single painting may be a color
study, another a formal arrangement, and yet another an exploration of texture
and surface.
