::: Title: CHU CHIA-HUA Contemporary Interpretation Of An Old Masterpiece  
  3D Animation; 3'00''
2006-2008

Ku Kai-Chih's <Admonitions of the Instructress to the Palace Ladies >is now in the collection of the British Museum. the Screen Paint-drawings attributed to Sima Jin-Long Cemetery in Northern Wei, and the pictorial brick of the <Seven Sages of the Bamboo Grove and Rong Qi-Qi>which found in Nanjing and the carvings of Ningmao stone chamber in Northern Wei are often compared in painting circles, confirming that their styles are of the same period. Amongst these pieces, the< Admonitions of the Instructress to the Palace Ladies> has been attributed to Ku Kai-Chih but still remains to be proved.

What the limited information tells us is that the depictions of characters and landscape correspond in style. However, there are great differences in terms of composition and the ratio between persons and nature. Chu Chia-Hua is of the opinion that the paintings attributed to Ku Kai-Chih in the history of painting, are not necessarily more artistic than the above lacquer screens, brick relieves, or line carved stone coffins; not to mention that most of his works are said to be copies from the T'ang or Sung dynasties.

When the NPM invited Chu Chia-Hua to create a contemporary piece for this exhibition, Chu decided to copy <One Hundred Horses> by Lang Shih-Ning of Ch'ing Dynasty. His intentions and connotations were similar with the relationship between<Admonitions of the Instructress to the Palace Ladies> and the paintings of Northern Wei. Although Chu's concepts were derived from Lang Shih-Ning's painting, he had infused his personal imagination and concepts of contemporary arts into his artwork for the audience.
