“Erjun Zhao has consummate skill in all aspects of drawing and painting. Her early training as an artist was traditional, and she has been able to combine these strengths in interesting ways with contemporary Western ideas. Her work often juxtaposes Asian modalities of color, drawing and sensibility with images that have iconic status in the history of Western art. She dose this without over-playing the idea, and her paintings have a look of reticence and modesty that is balanced by the their formal attributes and the virtuosity that underlies her work.”
