Biography
A citizen of Singapore and a luminary in the international art community, Professor Lin Xiang Xiong is the President of the Global Chinese Arts & Culture Society, Research Fellow of the Chinese National Academy of Arts, Guest Professor at the School of Arts, Peking University, and President of Honour at Mémoire de l’Avenir in France.
Renowned as both an artist and entrepreneur, Professor Lin’s influence extends beyond the canvas — his creative and intellectual contributions have shaped global dialogues on culture, peace, and sustainability. His works have been exhibited in solo shows across the world, from Europe to Asia, each exhibition offering a profound exploration of humanity’s shared struggles and aspirations.
His recent solo exhibition in Paris, “The Vicissitudes of Life,” stands as a testament to his artistic depth and humanitarian vision. Curated around the global themes of anti-war, anti-poverty, and anti-pollution, the exhibition was attended by distinguished guests including Former French President François Hollande and Former Prime Minister Jean-Pierre Raffarin — both recognising the artist’s profound voice in the dialogue of modern civilization.
Through his paintings, Professor Lin channels his conviction that art is not merely to be admired, but to awaken — to challenge complacency and to inspire empathy. His works, marked by emotional depth and symbolic abstraction, invite the viewer to contemplate humanity’s journey: the fragility of peace, the endurance of hope, and the beauty found within struggle.
As both a creator and cultural diplomat, Professor Lin Xiang Xiong’s legacy is that of a man who uses art as a language of unity — bridging East and West, intellect and emotion, past and future. His works continue to find homes in esteemed collections worldwide, valued for their philosophical resonance and enduring aesthetic grace.
