Haverford College Gallery Showcases Professor’s On-Campus Paintings

Haverford Gallery Showcases Professor’s On-Campus Paintings

Ying Li Haverford College Paintings at Cantor Fitzgerald

47 paintings by Ying Li, Chair of the Haverford College Fine Arts Department, will be on view at the Cantor Fitzgerald Gallery, located on the Haverford Campus.

The exhibition is called “Blossoms in a Sudden Strangeness.”


From the exhibit website

On March 11, 2020 Ying Li received notification that the Haverford College campus would be closing temporarily in response to the COVID-19 pandemic in Pennsylvania. What was initially forecast as a brief break soon became weeks and then months. Faced with time and a campus blossoming from winter to spring and spring to fall, Ying Li did what any artist would do and went to work, painting each day en plein air. The result is Blossoms in a Sudden Strangeness, an exhibition that captures the abstract beauty of Li’s creative output from March – August 2020.

These Garments Have Been Politically Maligned

Most non-Arabs who wear the keffiyeh do not intend it to be Anti-Semitic in any way. They wear it as an expression of sympathy for Palestinian civilians, support for human rights, concern about war, or identification with a broader cause of national identity and self-determination. In their minds, it is directed toward Palestinians, not against […]

What Does My Fountain Pen Have In Common With The Former Lord & Taylor In Bala Cynwyd?

Both come out of the work of Raymond Loewy and his design firm. Raymond Loewy (1893–1986) helped define what modern America looked like in the mid-20th century. Through his design firm, he worked across an unusually wide range of industries—transportation, consumer products, branding, and architecture—often simultaneously. No one in history is more closely associated with […]

January 16-18: The Philly Pen Show — A Delightfully Analog Experience

f you’re looking for a break from screens, alerts, and endless scrolling, the Philly Pen Show might be the cure—at least temporarily. It’s an unapologetically analog event: pens, paper, ink, and the people who still care deeply about them. Whether you’re a serious collector, someone who misses the feel of writing by hand, or just […]
