Pu
Tiansheng
was
born
in
Meijie,
Chiayi
City;
his
father
Pu
Ying
was
engaged
in
mounting
painting
and
was
good
at
drawing
portrait
paintings,
and
his
grandfather
was
a
painter
and
Buddha
engraver.
In
his
father's
shop,
he
became
interested
in
painting
and
began
to
describe
customers
as
his
objects.
In
1919,
he
entered
Yuchuan
Public
School
(now
the
predecessor
of
Chongwen
Elementary
School
in
Eastern
District,
Chiayi
City);
during
this
period,
he
was
taught
by
Chen
Chengbo
and
inspired
his
talent
for
artistic
creation.
At
the
age
of
14,
he
won
the
first
prize
of
the
Hsinchu
Art
Exhibition
with
his
work
"Cockfighting".
At
the
same
time,
he
has
always
hoped
that
he
can
go
to
Japan
to
study
like
his
neighbor
Lin
Yushan,
but
he
has
been
unable
to
achieve
this
because
of
the
family's
financial
situation.
In
1928,
he
teamed
up
with
Lin
Yushan
and
other
painters
to
form
the
"Chun
Meng
Painting
Academy".
At
the
age
of
20,
Pu
Tiansheng
took
advantage
of
the
opportunity
to
collect
the
balance
of
the
painting
business
for
his
father
and
went
to
Keelung
and
boarded
a
steamer
to
Japan.
In
1931,
he
began
to
specialize
in
drawing
at
the
Tokyo
Kawabata
School
of
Painting
(Japanese:
Kawabata
School
of
Painting).
In
the
long
days
after
arriving
in
Japan,
he
has
been
relying
on
sporadic
part-time
job
opportunities
and
remittances
from
his
father
and
brother
from
time
to
time
to
make
a
living.
In
1932,
he
was
admitted
to
the
glue
color
painting
department
of
the
Imperial
Academy
of
Fine
Arts
and
then
transferred
to
the
sculpture
department.
In
1934,
he
was
transferred
from
the
Imperial
Art
School
to
the
private
school
of
sculptor
Fumio
Asakura
(Japanese:
Fumio
Asakura);
under
his
strict
teaching,
he
developed
a
profound
basic
ability
and
correct
sculpture
concepts,
including
training
in
observation
and
memory
,
And
the
spirit
of
seeking
creative
inspiration
from
nature.
In
1939,
he
married
Chen
Ziwei,
the
eldest
daughter
of
Chen
Chengbo,
as
his
wife.
[In
1940,
he
was
selected
into
the
Exhibition
of
Prince
Shotoku's
Praise
for
His
Sculpture
"Sea
People".
Afterwards,
he
decided
to
return
to
Taiwan
to
organize
the
Taiyang
Fine
Arts
Association
with
Yang
Sanlang
and
others,
and
set
up
a
sculpture
department
under
it.
At
the
age
of
30,
he
returned
to
Taiwan
from
Japan,
and
was
recommended
by
his
father-in-law
Chen
Chengbo
to
take
over
his
first
job:
making
a
bronze
statue
of
Sun
Yat-sen
and
a
military
uniform
of
Jiang
Zhongzheng;
it
happened
that
Fumio
Asakura
presented
him
with
more
than
ten
photos
of
Sun
Yat-sen
before
he
returned
to
Taiwan.
He
also
urged
him
to
keep
it
properly.
Subsequently,
with
the
help
of
these
photos
and
his
relatives
and
friends,
he
successfully
completed
the
bronze
statue
of
Sun
Yat-sen
(later
placed
on
the
northeast
side
of
Taipei
Zhongshan
Hall
Plaza).
In
1946,
he
insisted
not
to
wear
a
military
cap
when
he
made
the
"Chairman
Chiang's
Armored
Portrait"
in
order
to
convey
his
spirit
through
his
head
shape
and
avoid
unnecessary
disputes
and
political
risks
through
communication.
At
the
age
of
35,
he
introduced
copper
casting
technology
to
Taiwan
from
Japan
and
established
a
copper
casting
factory.
From
1949,
he
taught
at
the
Sculpture
Workshop
of
the
Taiwan
Provincial
Department
of
Education
until
1979.
In
1971,
he
was
asked
to
wear
a
military
cap
when
making
Jiang
Zhongzheng's
figure,
otherwise
the
authorities
would
not
accept
it.
In
1982,
he
created
the
work
"Sunshine"
using
a
French
woman
as
a
model;
however,
the
work
was
not
only
not
accepted
by
the
organizer
of
the
National
Art
Exhibition
(exhibition
location
is
the
Sun
Yat-sen
Memorial
Hall),
its
modeling
also
triggered
whether
it
was
pornographic
dispute.
In
1983
and
1984,
at
the
suggestion
of
his
son
Pu
Haoming,
his
works
"The
Poet"
(in
memory
of
Lu
Xun)
"Slim
and
Jade",
"Remembrance",
etc.
were
sent
to
the
Paris
Salon
Art
Exhibition
(English:
Salon
(Paris))
for
selection
and
Selected
one
by
one.
In
1988,
he
was
inspired
by
the
women's
gymnastics
performance
at
the
Seoul
Olympics
and
created
ten
"Sports
Series"
works.
In
1993,
he
accepted
the
invitation
of
Lee
Teng-hui
(the
President
of
the
Republic
of
China
at
the
time)
to
create
a
commemorative
bronze
statue
of
Lin
Jingjuan,
a
teacher
of
a
health
kindergarten.
This
work
is
one
of
the
last
works.
He
often
suffered
cramps
or
lost
physical
strength
due
to
cancer
during
the
creation
process.
[5]
At
the
end
of
May
1996,
he
died
of
gastric
cancer
in
National
Taiwan
University
Hospital
shortly
after
finishing
the
work.
In
addition,
he
has
served
as
a
judge
for
many
decades
in
fine
arts
exhibitions
in
Taiwan
Province.

蒲添生出生於嘉義市美街；他的父親蒲嬰以裱畫為業並擅於繪製人像畫（英語：Portrait
painting），祖父則是畫家兼佛像雕刻師。
在父親的店裡，他對繪畫產生興趣，並開始以顧客為描摹對象。1919年，他進入玉川公學校（今嘉義市東區崇文國民小學前身）就讀；期間，他受陳澄波教導並啟發藝術創作的天分。14歲時，他以作品《鬥雞》獲得新竹美展首獎；同時，他也一直期望自己能如鄰居林玉山前往日本求學，但因家裡經濟狀況而始終無法實現。1928年，他與林玉山等畫家合組「春萌畫院」。
20歲時，蒲添生趁著替父親收取裱畫生意尾款的機會逕自前往基隆，並搭上輪船前往日本。1931年，他開始在東京川端畫學校（日語：川端画学校）專攻素描。在抵達日本後的漫長時日裡，他一直靠著零星的打工機會與父親及兄長不定時的匯款勉力維生。1932年，他考入帝國美術學校膠彩畫科就讀，後又轉入雕塑科。1934年，他從帝國美術學校轉入雕塑家朝倉文夫（日語：朝倉文夫）私塾門下；在其嚴格教導下，他練得了深厚的基礎能力和正確的雕塑觀念，其中包含觀察能力與記憶力的訓練，還有向自然尋求創作靈感的精神。
1939年，他迎娶陳澄波的長女陳紫薇為妻子。[1940年，他以雕塑作品《海民》入選聖德太子奉讚展。隨後，他決定返回臺灣與楊三郎等人籌組台陽美術協會，並在其下創設雕塑部。30歲時，他自日本返回臺灣，受岳父陳澄波引薦接下其首份工作：製作孫中山的銅像及蔣中正的戎裝像；恰巧，朝倉文夫在他返臺前贈送他十多張孫中山的照片，還叮嚀他將之妥善保存。隨後，在該些照片與其親友輔助下，他順利完成了孫中山的銅像（後置於臺北中山堂廣場東北側）。1946年，他在製作「蔣主席戎裝像」時堅持不使其著軍帽，以藉其頭形傳達其精神，並經溝通而免於不必要的爭議及政治風險。
35歲時，他將鑄銅技術自日本引入臺灣，並成立鑄銅工廠。
1949年起，他於臺灣省教育廳雕塑講習會開始任教直至1979年。
1971年，他在製作蔣中正的身像時被要求加上軍帽，否則有關當局將不予驗收。
1982年，他以法國籍女性為模特兒創作出作品《陽光》；但是，該作品不但未被全國美術展覽會的承辦單位（展覽地點為國父紀念館）所接受，其造型也引發是否涉及色情的爭議。1983年及1984年，他在兒子蒲浩明建議下將作品《詩人》（為紀念魯迅而作）《亭亭玉立》、《懷念》等送至巴黎沙龍藝術展（英語：Salon
(Paris)）參加選拔並一一入選。1988年，他在觀賞漢城奧運女子體操表演後受其啟發，並因而創作出十件《運動系列》作品。
1993年，他接受李登輝(時任中華民國總統)邀請為健康幼稚園教師林靖娟創作紀念銅像；該作品為其最後作品之一，他在創作過程中因癌症經常發生抽筋或失去體力的情況。[5]1996年5月底，他在完成作品不久後因胃癌逝世於臺大醫院。
此外，他也曾在台灣省全省美術展覽會擔任評審數十年。
