LI Jikai Artist Biographies - Ravenel International Art Group

LI Jikai

Chinese　1975

Born in Chengdu, China. Graduated in oil painting from Sichuan Fine Arts Institute. He currently teaches in animation department of Hubei Institute of Fine Arts. His works usually describe inner pain of Chinese young generation who grow up daydreaming under the red flag. His works also convey very typically that young artists strive into the psychedelic world of individual subconscious to get knowing impacts caused by modern unstable and messy life on new generations. Meanwhile, the surfaces of his works present a sense of nirvana and illusion, and are able to express multiple layers of implied meanings. Some significant exhibitions throughout his career are as followed: 2004, in He Xiangning Art Museum, Shenzhen, "Mood of the Youth—Exhibition of Rewarded Paintings of Chinese Newly Emerging Artists"; 2005, "Next Stop, Cartoon?" in Gallery 3818; 2006, "Variable Images—Chinese Contemporary Oil Paintings Invitational Exhibition", Shanghai Art Museum.
