His paintings are in private, corporate and museum collections in America, Europe and Asia. His work was included in Sotheby's first American auction of Chinese contemporary art, held in New York City in March 2006. Born in Nanjing, China, Zhang's artistic training began at age nine. At fourteen he was the top student accepted to the Central Art Academy Affiliated High School in Beijing, China. In 1984, he was accepted to the highly selective MFA program at the Central Art Academy. In 1985, Zhang came to the United States to continue his study in art. Represented by New York'sGrand Central Gallery, Zhang was in their acclaimed 1986 show, Realism from China, the first exhibit to introduce Chinese oil painting to the Western world.

After moving to Woodstock, New York in 1991, Zhang continued working in the realism tradition, yet expanding his subjects from Tibetan to a wide range that include Chinese and American historical paintings, and contemporary American subjects. His works have appeared in many publications, including National Geographic, Fine Art Connoisseur, and Artist magazines. National Geographic Society acquired four of his Chinese historical paintings for their permanent collection. Zhang and his wife, Lois Woolley, co-wrote The Yin Yang of Painting, which presents his unique artistic approach and style for oil painting.

HongNian Zhang интернациональный известный китайско-американский художник. Работает в Западной академической традиционной манере. Его картины находятся в коллекциях музеев Америки, Европы и Азии. Родился в Наньцзине ( Китай). В четырнадцать он был ведущим студентом, принятым Central Art Academy Affiliated High School in Beijing, China. По окончании обучения наступило время, когда культурная революция закрывала школы, и Жэнга послали с его классом в отдаленную сельскую местность на 4 года принудительных работ. После возвращения в Пекин в 1973, он стал самым молодым художником нанятым пекинской Академией Искусств, и в 1979 самым молодым членом, когда-либо избираемым за всю историю китайской Ассоциации Художников. В 1984, он был принят по отборной программе MFA в Central Art Academy.
