Qimin
Liu:
A Journey of Art and Redemption
March 3 ~ April
14, 2012
Opening Reception:
Saturday, March 3, 2012 @ 7:00 p.m.
With work spanning nearly three decades of artistic expression,
this exhibit examines the art and career of Qimin Liu, a Chinese-American
painter who immigrated to the United States in 1991. Covering
a wide range of his work during this period, the intent of this
exhibit is also to highlight the personal and spiritual journey
of the artist as he has sought to find and establish himself in
the art world of modern U. S. society. Over the past ten years,
the work of Qimin Liu has been placed squarely in the school of
both Philadelphia Realism and as a direct descendent of the New
York "Ashcan" School of artists, having gathered much national
and international acclaim. Please join us as we take a look into
the life and art of Qimin Liu.
