Fang Rending (Chinese: 方人定; pinyin: Fāng Réndìng, 1901–1975) was a Chinese artist with the Lingnan School known for his figure paintings. Born in Zhongshan, Guangdong, he initially enroled at law school before taking up art. Initially studying under Gao Jianfu, in 1929 he travelled to Japan to study at the Nippon Art School. He participated in numerous joint exhibitions, both in the Republic of China and abroad, as well as several solo exhibitions. Fang broke with Gao Jianfu in 1941, and in subsequent years he experimented with new subject matter and, later, social realism. Compared to Gao's other students, Fang has received little scholarly attention, and auction prices for his works have generally been low.
