During the mid 80's I lived in houston with my mother. When we were there we went to an art show featuring a Chinese optometrist who used x-ray chemicals and paint to create his works. There was one inparticular that is burned in my mind to this very day but I cannot for the life of me remember his name.

The title of the painting is 'To Run'

The background is a firery orange with midnight blue outlines of what appears to be a horse running.

It is very abstract and some people cannot make out the horse.

If any of you know what I am talking about or know the artist it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Oh boy. Good luck with this one!

I scoured images.google.com, regular google, the usenet archives, all with no hint of a Chinese optometrist using xray chemicals to paint blue and orange horses.

Sorry...

I'm with Mike on this one. I have spent the last hour looking (should I admit that? )

I'm really sorry, too, because I want to see this art.

Sounds fascinating. Good luck in your quest to find it

Thanks for helping everyone, hopefully Jaime can help me get it on my Avatar.

Loookin' good sleeper

Wow, that's really nice, Sleeper!

Congratulations! I had been doing some research, alas, to no avail, but it seems that you have accomplished it. Kudos to you on that one! What was the artists name? I had found what seemed like a painting with the chemicals you desscribed by a chinese artist named "Lin Feng-mian," not sure if that was the person.

His name is Dominic Man-Kit Lam. If you check the link above there are some more of his painting listed there.

Thanks Again
