Description

This wedding print from 1970 captures Zhu Wei Bor's signature technical elements: a dramatic cutting style, balanced black and white shapes, and extraordinary defining textures. It also is typical of his ability to observe and share the everyday cultural events that shape village life, in this case a wedding day. Although the central figure(s) appear static (the bride has apparently just mounted the horse--and check out the expression of the horse!), everything around them is a swirling mass of frenetic activity.
