==Life and career==
Hung Liu was born in Changchun, People's Republic, China, in 1948, and immigrated to the United States in 1984. She attended Beijing Teachers College in 1975 and studied mural painting as a graduate student at the Central Academy of Fine Arts in Beijing.〔Kara Kelly Hallmark, ''Encyclopedia of Asian American Artists'', Greenwood Publishing Group, 2007, p115. ISBN 0-313-33451-X〕 She is a class of '86 alumna of UC, San Diego. Her paintings and prints often make use of anonymous Chinese historical photographs, particularly those of women, children, refugees, and soldiers as subject matter. Liu's paintings - often large, drippy, and washed with layers of linseed oil - can be seen as critiques of the rigid academicism of the Chinese Socialist Realist style in which she was trained, as well as metaphors for the loss of historical memory. Given the pathos that often infuses her works, her painting style might be thought of as a kind of "weeping realism."
One of the first Chinese artists to study in the U.S., Liu is regarded by many as "the greatest Chinese painter in the US."〔David Littlejohn, Wall Street Journal, June 5, 2013 5:26 p.m. ET〕 Liu has received numerous awards, including two painting fellowships from the National Endowment for the Arts, a Joan Mitchell Fellowship, and her work is represented in the permanent collections of major museums and private collections throughout the United States and Asia. She is currently the Professor Emerita of Painting at Mills College in Oakland, California, where she taught from 1990 until retiring in 2014.
