He taught me how to work in collaboration and partnership with others

As a professor at Moore College of Art and Design, Chen Lee often brought in visiting artists to the studio as part of his teaching methodology. He established this program and received funding from the National Endowment of the Arts. Featured here is a lithograph by Italian artist Itslo Scanga entitled Cythe. My father printed this edition of lithographs in collaboration with Mr. Scanga.

This print is one of the many gifted works that is part of the Chen Lok Lee Archive and Collection that I now manage. This one is special because it was printed three months after I was born, and this Artist’s Proof was dedicated to me. (See bottom lefthand corner). Thank you, Itslo!
