| book description |

This book focuses on Li Leiâ€™s abstract painting from the period 2006 to 2016. Important series include Shanghai Flowers, Flames at Pompeii and Memories of the South. Accompanying essays trace his influences, from the twentieth-century Abstract art scene in Shanghai and his childhood in the vast landscapes of Chinaâ€™s northwest, to his knowledge of the Western abstract art theory of Kandinsky, Chinese Buddhist and Daoist philosophy, and the traditional Chinese art forms of poetry and ink painting. Development in Li Leiâ€™s painting is described, and his style identified as philosophically eclectic and â€˜moderateâ€™, a distinctively Chinese kind of poetic abstraction.
