Bringing Bolin to the USA
Liu Bolin, known as the “disappearing” Chinese artist, has done it again, but this time in the USA.
Having claimed his fame by previously painting himself into scenes as painterly demonstrations against his Chinese government, in response, the government demolished his studio. Sarah Schiller of the Wooster Collective along with Eli Klein Fine Art brought Liu to America where he made his debut in New York City by painting himself into Kenny Scharf’s recognizable comedic faces mural on Houston Street.
And here are some scenes of Liu Bolin in his home country, equally as fascinating.

I'm an artist, wife and mother of two boys. I started my illustration business, The Occasional Palette over 35 years ago, when my oldest son was an infant. Once my children were in school, I began painting decorative, faux finishes and murals through my second business, Casart, now over 30 years old. My third business, Casart Coverings, is a springboard from my second.
