Yan DONKO: The Philippines in Chinese Paintings - Depicted by an Austro-Chinese Artist - Exhibition Catalogue. National Museum of the Philippines (Museum of the Filipino People) - Manila 2012

Yan Donko is an Austrian painter with an ethnic Chinese background who lives only temporarily in the Philippines. Born in Shanghai in 1965 she lived in many different countries and sees the world from a very individual perspective: "There are many Philippine artists who expressed the rich cultural heritage of this wonderful country in their pictures. I do not try to compete with the local artists; but as I had already depicted typical Austrian landscapes and historical buildings with traditional Chinese techniques, I was tempted to try this approach also for the Philippines"

The book contains 70 paintings of Yan Donko
Autorenporträt
Donko, Yan
Geboren in Schanghai am 16.7.1965. Sie studierte Kunst- und Kulturgeschichte an der Fudan Universität und ging 1986 nach Japan; an der Tokio Universität (Todai) kam sie 1989 mit dem Innviertel in Kontakt, konkret mit dem Schärdinger Wilhelm Donko, die beiden heirateten 1990.

Bedingt durch den Beruf ihres Mannes lebte sie in den folgenden Jahre in Wien, Algier, Moskau, Ankara, Seoul und seit 2009 Manila, dazwischen aber immer wieder auch in Schärding, das längst zur de facto Heimatstadt für sie geworden ist.

Die Künstlerin verbindet die chinesische Maltechnik mit lokalen Motiven aus Schärding und dem Innviertel sowie dem benachbarten Passau und Niederbayern.
