What schools of painting have emerged in contemporary China?

The works of New Jinling School, New Zhejiang School, Chang 'an School and Modern Color Ink School have become the mainstream of contemporary China painting and calligraphy market. In recent years, the market price has soared with the general trend and has reached a very high level.

The 20th century is an era of knowledge explosion, and China's painting art has also entered an era of technique explosion. The transformation movement of Chinese painting, which arose in the late Qing Dynasty, gradually matured in the 1950s and 1960s. On the basis of adhering to China's traditional painting techniques, the artists in New China have absorbed the essence from the artistic theories and expression techniques of various schools of western painting, greatly enriching the painting techniques of contemporary China. On the basis of the existing Beijing-Tianjin School, Shanghai School and Lingnan School, various contemporary painting schools such as New Jinling School, New Zhejiang School, Chang 'an School and Kanto School have been formed one after another. In recent years, emerging local painting schools with regional characteristics as the main style have emerged constantly, such as Xinhui Painting School, Loess Painting School, Ice and Snow Painting School, Lijiang Painting School, Desert Painting School and Nanchang Painting School. Although there are more and more followers, they are not ready to really start school.
