I wonder how many red-haired artists China has.  Maybe it is more common than I think. At the very least, there is a writer, also from Taiwan, who had red hair.  Victoria (Yung-Chih) Lu was born in Taipei and studied painting at age six.  At nine, she enrolled in night classes at University and was described by newspapers as the “youngest college student”.  At 19, she went to study in Belgium and in ’73 she went to the United States where she became involved in the Women’s Liberation Movement.  Concurrently, she moved away from traditional painting and became a more radical figure in the art world.  This month, she had a show at the Today Art Museum in Beijing.

中国有几个著名艺术家把自己头发染成比较亮的颜色？可能不少。当代著名的”动漫美学策展人”陆蓉之在中国台湾出生但带的时间在美国很长。她从6岁开始学绘画；9岁进大学夜间部修课，被报纸称作当时年纪最小的大学生；19岁到比利时皇家学院深造。1973年到了美国，参与了女权主义运动，同时她一下子抛掉已经学习了17年的传统绘画，成为观念艺术的急先锋。一月份在北京今日美术馆有她动漫展叫”生化–虚实之间”。
