Under his leadership and following in his footsteps, many artists have made great contributions to the promotion of the art of soft pastel in China.<\/p>\n<p>The most important among them was the painter Gaozu Lian Yiqing, whose name this first exhibition bears. In the early 1980s, it was also Gaozu Lian Yiqing who compiled and published a collection of pastel paintings from his mentor and teacher, Li Chaoshi, instructing, developing, and producing pastel materials.<\/p>\n<p>In 1985, under the leadership of Lian Yiqing, China&#8217;s first professional pastel painting organization, &#8220;Shanghai Pastel Painting Society&#8221;, was established and he was its first president. Since then, the art of pastel painting has gradually spread throughout China, and &#8220;fans of dry pastel have emerged like bamboo shoots after a rain.&#8221; \u263a<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_10818\" style=\"width: 630px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-10818\" class=\"size-large wp-image-10818\" src=\"https:\/\/portraitonpastel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/First-Lian-Yiqing-Pastel-Exhibition-2021-1024x712.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"620\" height=\"431\" srcset=\"https:\/\/portraitonpastel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/First-Lian-Yiqing-Pastel-Exhibition-2021-1024x712.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/portraitonpastel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/First-Lian-Yiqing-Pastel-Exhibition-2021-300x209.jpg 300w, https:\/\/portraitonpastel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/First-Lian-Yiqing-Pastel-Exhibition-2021.jpg 1638w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 620px) 100vw, 620px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-10818\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">2021\u9996\u5c4a\u8fde\u9038\u537f\u676f\u7c89\u753b\u5c55, pastel painting, first Yiqing Lian 2021 Soft pastel exhibition, China<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"attachment_10817\" style=\"width: 630px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-10817\" class=\"size-large wp-image-10817\" src=\"https:\/\/portraitonpastel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/First-Lian-Yiqing-Pastel-Exhibition-2021-1-1024x712.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"620\" height=\"431\" srcset=\"https:\/\/portraitonpastel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/First-Lian-Yiqing-Pastel-Exhibition-2021-1-1024x712.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/portraitonpastel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/First-Lian-Yiqing-Pastel-Exhibition-2021-1-300x209.jpg 300w, https:\/\/portraitonpastel.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/First-Lian-Yiqing-Pastel-Exhibition-2021-1.jpg 1638w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 620px) 100vw, 620px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-10817\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">2021\u9996\u5c4a\u8fde\u9038\u537f\u676f\u7c89\u753b\u5c55, pastel painting, first Yiqing Lian 2021 Soft pastel exhibition, China<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Lian yiqing was born in Songyang, Zhejiang in 1917; he joined the Department of Painting of the Hangzhou National Academy of Art (now China Academy of Art) in 1933.
