Collector Tips for Hao Ping

When we first encountered prints by Hao Ping, we were mesmerized. His works reveal a world of dreams, combining vivid colors and exotic forms. Ethereal female figures seem to float effortlessly, creating a visual narrative that is both compelling and otherworldly.

The grandeur of Hao Ping’s prints is further enhanced by their impressive size, ranging from 60 x 60 cm (23.4 x 23.4 inches) to 90 x 90 cm (35 x 35 inches). The artist appears to favor square formats, which complement the harmonious composition of his designs. Each print is a limited edition, with runs varying between 30 and 200 copies. They are meticulously signed, dated, and numbered by the artist. Created using the woodcut technique with multiple color blocks, these prints are personally crafted by Hao Ping on offset paper. It is worth noting that the paper quality of his earlier works may not match the standards seen in contemporary Western art due to material limitations in China at the time.
