Mr Ho Ho Ying, (Chinese: 何和应) is a pioneer Singapore modern art artist who is renowned for his visionary and avant-garde approach to art.  In 2012, he received the Cultural Medallion Award, the highest award for arts practitioners, for his invaluable contribution to the Singapore arts scene. For over 60 years, Ho Ho Ying has been painting passionately, expressing freely his visions of the world aroundhim, making him one of the most established and versatile contemporary local artists.

 

Being the leading figure of Singapore’s modern art scene, Ho Ho Ying enthrals us with his novel art works- abstract art that has metamorphosed with his own distinctive identity.  His signature style is the western abstract expressionism in which Ho Ho Ying places special emphasis in the use of drips, dribble, colours, forms and strokes which has become his trademark. He also pioneered his own unique hybrid of modern Western and Chinese Creative Calligraphy in 1995 called “Ban Bian Shu” (半边书), literally half side of the world.  This innovative form of couplet writing involved a unique mix of Eastern and Western art styles that took decades to develop in which Ho Ying finds it particularly intriguing and greatly passionate about.
