Fu Baoshi Memorial

Fu Baoshi Memorial is located at 132nd Hankou West Road in Nanjing, China, where Fu Baoshi, a great art master born in 1904, lived. Not only did Fu create large amounts of Chinese painting and carving works but he also taught many talented artists. The tip of his writing brush is unique which is called "Baoshi Cun" by people. It was not until 1965 when he died that he gained more widespread recognition. During the Cultural Revolution, all the offspring he had were driven out of their home and then were scattered all around the world. In 1985, in memory of the 20-year anniversary of Fu's death, the government contributed to maintaining the old house and planned to build a memorial for Fu Baoshi. This memorial opened in 1987. Its first curator was Fu Ershi—Fu, Baoshi's son.
