Born in the Longchang County in the Sichuan province of China in 1974, Zeng Chuanxing studied at the Minza Universities in the 90s with a focus in oil painting. Zeng’s oeuvre has been a conscious preoccupation in depicting minority and oriental women with a classical realists approach, as epitomizes by his Paper bride series. Finding inspirations from his surroundings and the changing cultural dynamic of China where he grew up, Zeng frequently rendered realist work as a means to express his feelings and attitudes towards life. Over the years, his awards include, 2002, “The silver medal of Hunan area in the Exhibition of "Memorize Mao Zedong’s Speech on Yan An Forum”, Hunan Museum, Changsha; 2003 "Sacrifice of the Youth" The 17th Exhibition of New Works of New Artist, Yan-Huang Art Museum, Beijing, China; 2005 “The copper medal in The 6th Bai Hua Prize of Nationalities”, Beijing Cultural Palace of Nationalities, Beijing; 2005 Solo exhibitions: 2007 “Merger & Creation Well-known Artists Invitation Show”, Beijing, China.
