ONE WEEK FROM TODAY Jennifer Wong will take us on a web-based exploration of the important Art Deco architectural legacy of her notable grandfather, Liu Jipiao.

- Studies as a young man in Paris during the 1920s
- Chinese-and-Deco fused architectural designs
- Involvement in the establishment of one of the first modernist art schools in China
- Contributions to the 1925 Paris Exposition internationale des arts décoratifs et industriels modernes Passionate work in rebuilding and strengthening China
In addition, we will also get Jennifer's insider view on why Liu Jipiao is known as the “Father of Chinese Art Deco," and explore how his life changed after fleeing China in 1947 to America.
As we explore the life and work of Liu Jipiao in this web-based event, we'll also get a glimpse of the arrival of the first wave of the Chinese artists to Paris in the 1920s!
