The Nobel Prize Laureate in Literature (2000) Gao Xingjian is also a painter. A small sample of his work can be found here. Gao believes that the world cannot be explained and that artistic creation offers the only way to escape into meaning. His images convey these aspects of an inexplicable world-the black-and-white inner world that underlies the complexity of human existence. Two collections of his paintings, Ink Paintings by Gao Xingjian, and Return to Painting, can be found in the bookstores.
