Creating art in the United States since 2017, YouYe Chu’s education and world travels have exposed her to European styles of painting, especially the works of Pablo Picasso, Henri Matisse, Salvador Dali, Marc Chagall, Edvard Munch, and Georg Baselitz, as well as Aboriginal Art by Australia’s leading Indigenous artists.

Internationally renowned artist YouYe Chu, affectionately known as “YoYo,” graduated with a B.A. in Advertising Design from the Shanghai Institute of Applied Technology in 1999 with advanced studies at the China Academy of Art in Hangzhou.

Ms. Chu’s education and world travels have exposed her to European styles of painting, especially the works of Pablo Picasso, Henri Matisse, Salvador Dali, Marc Chagall, Edvard Munch, and Georg Baselitz, as well as Aboriginal Art by Australia’s leading Indigenous artists. As a result, her paintings blur the lines between east and west, old and new.

Over the past two decades, Ms. Chu has earned a reputation as an accomplished contemporary artist with paintings in the collections of the Shanghai XuHui Museum and YueHu Museum of Art. She has also had the opportunity to participate in art exchanges and exhibitions across the globe in China, Taiwan, France, the United States and Australia. In 2014, Ms. Chu’s work was selected to represent China in France-China 1964-2014: 50 years of Diplomatic Relations, an exhibition at Hotel de Ville de Paris (City Hall in Paris) celebrating 50 years of Chinese-French relations.

Her work is in private collections in Shanghai, Paris, Barcelona, Japan, Taiwan, and Australia.
