Born in 1921, Lalan was brought up in a scholarly family, where her gift in music was cultivated from a young age. Lalan moved to Paris in 1948 and continued her studies in music composition and modern dance. She took up painting in 1957 and had never cease painting till an accident took her life in 1995. Lalan started out creating abstract paintings with calligraphic signs, then quickly developed a distinct style driven by her strong urge of self-expression. Spirit of Chinese traditional landscapes was brought into Lalan's painting during 1970's and the artist's accomplishments of music and modern dance also add graceful qualities of poetry and rhythm in her works.

Some 30 pieces of painting from different periods of Lalan's creative career will be shown, providing a comprehensive overview of her achievement in the field of art. Apart from Lalan's paintings, ``Breeze from Paris`` will also show abstract works on paper by T'ang Haywen, works infused with feminine charm by Pan Yulin, sculptures by Hsiung Ping-Ming and sketches by Sanyu, representing the great era when cultures of Oriental and Occidental met and fruited into magnificent art.
