LI YUAN-CHIA (China, 1929-Taiwan, 1994) Untitled, 1960. Mixed media on canvas.

LI YUAN-CHIA (China, 1929-Taiwan, 1994) Untitled, 1960. Mixed media on canvas. Signed in the lower left corner. Measurements: 52 x 32 cm; 53 x 33 cm (frame). Born in Guangxi, Li Yuan-Chia moved to Taiwan in 1949. Later, in 1951, he entered Taipei Normal School and began studying art, where he met Hsiao Chin, Ho Kan and other mainland students. Dissatisfaction toward conservative art education led Li to study with Li Zhongsheng (1912-84), and he founded the Tou Fon Group with other artists. In 1962, Li moved to Italy and settled in England in 1965 until his death in 1994. Li is not only a painter, but also a poet, photographer, multimedia artist, curator and research archivist. In 1962, Li received the patronage of the famous Italian furniture designer Dino Gavina (1922-2007), who invited him to Bologna for artistic creation. Gavina even helped Li to obtain a residency document in Italy. Lots 495 to 502 are works collected by Dino Gavina in the 1960s. Apart from two works painted in 1959-1960 that belong to the Taiwan period, the rest of the works are created in Bologna. A publication entitled "Dino Gavina Ultrazionale Ultramobile" documents Li's works and his life in Italy, as well as Gavina's friendship with Lucio Fontana, Alberto Giacometti and Marcel Duchamp. Dino Gavina's furniture company was active in the 1950s-60s and collaborated with famous designers such as Mario Bellini and the Castiglioni brothers.

Decades before the Stars movement brought contemporary art to mainland China was bringing cutting edge conceptual thoughts to the bridge Western and Eastern art historical tradition and contemporary practice. These works date from an important moment in both Li Yuanchia’s career and also in the history of the development of conceptual art. Whilst Chinese artists visited and studied in Europe in large numbers in the early 20th Century They all date to the four-year period in the early 1960s which Li spent in Bologna where he sent up a studio in the factor of the internationally renowned designer Dino Gavina, having arrived in Italy in 1962, where he met with Hsiao Chin, joining him as a member of the Punto movement. which sought to draw on the mindful spirit of Tang and Song Buddhism, which would rescue the post-war art world from the aimlessness and indecision that had resulted from an overabundance of movements. Li’s major contribution to the movement was his concept of the “Cosmic Point” drawing on Western spatialism, minimalism and abstractionism. It used only fleeting calligraphic marks and a limited palette, black for the origin and the end of all things, red for blood and life, gold for nobility, white for purity, and through this represented the symbolic image of the universe (or 'allness').
