JOHN LI
Dancing, lithograph, 25" x 19.3"

An artist, teacher, writer and scholar, John Li attended the School of Art
at the University of Iowa. During those years, Li studied with Muricio
Lasansky and James Lechay, who were renowned artists in the University.

At the University of Iowa, Li was initiated to a different system of learning
and creation, and gained deeper understanding of tertiary educational
ideals, local art developments and the latest art activities.  It was during
his time at the University of Iowa  that he began to blend together Eastern
and Western artistic representations in his creative works.  What we see
today is actually the result of unceasing efforts in this direction over the
past decades.
