A Chinese art curator, researcher, scholar, and teacher of Chinese painting and connoisseurship, Arnold Chang (b. 1954, New York) received traditional literati painting training in his early life. He applies the materials, tools, and techniques that were widely used in China since the 10th century to create, and is dedicated to exploring the beauty of balance in water, ink, brushwork, and linear rhythm. His work includes ink linear experiments, abstract landscape, and collaborative works that combine photography and painting. 

Chang holds an MA from the University of California, Berkeley, and a BA from the University of Colorado. His paintings have been exhibited internationally and are in the permanent collections of Metropolitan Museum of Art, British Museum, Asian Art Museum, Los Angeles County Museum of Art, the Art Institute of Chicago, the Minneapolis Institute of Art, the Brooklyn Museum, Phoenix Art Museum, Norton Museum of Art, Crocker Art Museum, Yale University Art Gallery, Princeton University Art Museum, and Harvard University Art Museum.
