Li Bo Art

Li Bo (Born 1982) is a graduate of the Central Academy Fine Art in Beijing. He graduated in the Department of Murals in 2006. Li Bo sources the materials for his art from the internet. That’s why he says that the internet is very important to young people these days. Apart from the internet, his Chinese cultural background plays a big role in his art: most of his works include at least an allusion to Chinese current events or Chinese history. He appropriates all his images from the internet. He then reassembles them in a systematic way - resizes the images to make them have he same heights, and then lines them against a colorless background. This results in a simultaneous free disorientation and association. Li Bo paints with meticulous realism.
