Oil paint
Guo Hongwei (born 1982) is a Contemporary artist based in Beijing. Guo graduated from the Oil painting Department of Sichuan Fine Arts Institute in 2004. After graduation, he created a style of painting based on old photographs of the artist himself and his family. To create blurry reproductions of the original images, Guo Hongwei would dilute oil paint with turpentine. These works were later exhibited together at "Dissolving Memories", his first solo exhibition at Connoisseur Art Gallery, Hong Kong, in 2007.
