Jennifer S. Li

Jennifer S. Li is an advisor, writer, and educator with over 20 years of experience in the art world.

Greetings and welcome! It is so exciting and fulfilling to connect collectors with artists and their work through my longstanding relationships with artists and galleries. In today’s fast-paced art world, access and timing is key. I like to think of my job as a bit like matchmaking: finding the perfect artwork for the right client, and creating that spark for an inspirational, beautiful, meaningful environment.

My experience in the art world is tripartite and multifaceted, converging on the art market, art education, as well as art criticism—this means that my perspective on any given artwork, artist or body of work is multi-dimensional, providing a deep understanding in terms of value, connoisseurship, concept, and meaning. My writing regularly appears in publications such as Art in America, ArtReview, Sight Unseen, and Architectural Digest’s AD PRO, and I have served as the LA Desk Editor for the internationally distributed ArtAsiaPacific magazine since 2008. I worked in education at the Getty and the Art Institute of Chicago for a combined seven years, and, through ArtMuse LA, I continue to give inspiring and educational tours of Los Angeles galleries and museums to groups large and small.

I hope to meet you and be inspired together soon!
