Bill Dunlap

An artist from USA.

‘Many of Bill Dunlap’s pieces are vaguely reminiscent of Chinese opera masks and paper-cut decorations,

while others have a cartoony, neo-kitsch quality about them.

Dense with color and texture, Dunlap’s work is a barrage on the senses in the best possible way.’

Bill Dunlap

一名美国艺术家

对于他这一系列以中国民间传统艺术舞狮为题材的作品，

国外网站 lostateminor.com这样评价：

‘ 当其他人还在用一种新的卡通化，媚俗廉价的方式表现中国传统艺术时，

Bill Dunlap 已经在用稠密的色彩和颜料感来表达他心中的中国传统艺术，

这种似暧昧的怀旧感有可能是这种民间艺术的最好的表现形式。

Dunlap已经在这方面为其他艺术家树立了门槛。’
