Besides Suzhou classical gardens, ancient water towns, and
museums, you are strongly recommended to visit some of themed
galleries if you are in Suzhou this summer. For example, Silk Light
of Suzhou Embroidery Gallery has been exhibiting from July 10 to
November 20 this year in Suzhou Art Gallery.
The exhibition consists of 50 exquisite Suzhou embroideries including many creative artworks made by Suzhou Embroidery Art Innovation Center recently.
Suzhou Embroidery has a history of more than 2500 years, well known for its 'delicacy, exquisiteness, elegance and conciseness' and honored as 'China's Best Embroidery' and 'National Treasure of China'.
High-quality Suzhou embroideries look better than paintings due to its vivid representations of different landscapes far and near, various buildings against a deep backdrop, lively figures, graceful flowers and gurgling birds.
Mrs. Zhang Meifang, who used to be the director of Suzhou Embroidery Research Institute, established the Suzhou Embroidery Art Innovation Center in 2004 and contributed a lot to the development of Suzhou embroidery, especially on the innovation of material, technique and content of Suzhou embroidery.
Suzhou Embroidery has showcased its charms with unique characteristics and diverse stitching techniques that had been displayed on soft and lustrous silk, creating unparalleled beauty of oriental artwork.
It is reported that Mrs. Zhang firstly merged chain,
buttonhole, running, satin and cross stitches into one embroidery,
which remain the fundamental techniques of hand embroidery
today.
They showcase inclusiveness for novel artistic characteristics that can produce artworks, such as oil paintings, gouaches, traditional Chinese paintings and photos. When embroidering, artists make recreations that can realize better visual and artistic effects.
