Chinese Tempera Artist Li Xiaogang Featured in Venice Biennale Exhibition

Li’s hand-layered tempera paintings contrast with the show’s focus on artificial intelligence, authorship and memory.

  • The Beijing-born artist Xiaogang is presenting work at the 61st Venice Biennale in Venice, Italy, where his traditional Chinese Painting is shown alongside an exploration of human creativity.
  • Xiaogang studied under Ritsuo Maeda in Japan before traveling to Italy to explore Renaissance Painting techniques, and he serves as vice-president of the Keran Academy of Painting.
  • His hand-layered Painting appears in the exhibition Metamorphosis: Beyond the Real, Searching for Victoria, When Humans and Think Together, the Story Begins at Foscari Esposizioni in Venice, contrasting with technology-focused themes.
  • Reflecting on technology in Art, Xiaogang said the emotional depth of handmade work remains irreplaceable, highlighting how slow Painting creation demonstrates enduring craftsmanship value.
  • "Art ultimately confronts the universal human condition," Xiaogang said, hoping global audiences experience how Painting reimagined through an Eastern lens expresses shared time, memory, and emotion.
