Li Tiefu was not only an artist, but also simultaneously a revolutionary and a poet. He was one of the first Chinese artists to go overseas to study oil painting, and remains until the present day to be one of the most fascinating characters in the history of Hong Kong and Chinese art. Existing works by Li Tiefu are rare. The exhibits in the present catalogue were on loan from the Guangzhou Academy of Fine Arts in which most of Li's works were stored and occasionally brought to public view in provincial exhibitions. The accompanying essays study the art and life of Li Tiefu, introducing the readers to the relationship between his paintings and Western art, and the style and techniques of his works in the course of his artistic development. A biography of Li Tiefu and a section on Li's poems and proses (in Chinese) are also included in the present catalogue.



李鐵夫既是一名藝術家,也是一個革命家和詩人。他是首批負笈海外學習油畫的藝術家之一,如今中港藝壇均視之為一名傳奇人物。李鐵夫的傳世作品甚少,本圖錄的作品均由李鐵夫藏品最豐的廣州美術學院借出,該學院向來只會向省級展覽會借出李氏作品。書中評論縷述了李鐵夫的藝術和人生,並介紹了其繪畫藝術與西方藝術體系之間的淵源,以及他的畫風與技法的演變。本圖錄亦載有李鐵夫的中文簡歷及詩文作品。
