Neo Art League is a professional artists association founded in 2006 by Taiwanese artists based in the United States, with its primary activities centered in Southern California. The association exhibits annually at the Taiwanese American Heritage Week in Orange County and has participated in multicultural events such as Art Walk Day in Los Angeles. Members work across a wide range of media including oil, acrylic, mixed media, glass, digital, ink, and sculpture, with an emphasis on innovation and contemporary expression. The association has been invited to exhibit at venues across the United States and internationally, including in San Francisco, North Carolina, Arizona, New York, Paris, Taiwan, Japan, and Italy. Members are also active in art competitions, lectures, and painting instruction.

Role in the Community

  • Documented in the TAH story corpus as its own directory record (Neo Art League 加州新藝畫會, 2018-05-07) and in coverage of its shows: 2009 and 38. Art Show of Neo Art League at La Artcore Brewery Annex, Los Angeles, May 2019.
  • From the memoir [[works/taiwaneseamericanhistory-org/our-journeys-371|Our Journeys #371]]: through the California ties of painter 楊平猷, the association was invited by the Taiwanese Traditional Week Committee to hold a joint commemorative art show for the 2020 Taiwanese American Heritage Week; the pandemic closed the 華僑文教中心 and 台灣會館 and the plan was suspended. In 2021 the relationship reversed — the memoirist’s association invited Neo Art League (and the related 台美畫會 circle) into the 後藝情國際交流展 at the Harbor City Cultural Center, alongside La Artcore, the West Coast Drawing Association, and artists from Australia and Japan — the memoir credits 劉白 for bringing in La Artcore and the West Coast Drawing Association and names the overseas invitees 蔡碧桃 (Australia) and 侯飛月 (Japan). The same memoir records that, ahead of the 2020 plan, the circle had taken part in the 南加州台灣會館建館基金會 fundraising.
  • 李淑櫻 (NTNU grad, in the U.S. since 1976) served as 會長 of 新藝畫會, in addition to NATWA Southern California chapter president, NATWA Southwest Region director, and TUF director (台灣正義新聞網, 話畫時間 feature).
  • 2017-04 — members 李淑櫻、洪逸凡、劉白、蔡蕙香、陳文石 were invited into the TUF-hosted 「台灣之美‧亞洲之心」 international touring show in Los Angeles, curated by 新藝畫會理事 蘇奐豪 (MFA Utah, museum curator in Utah since 1997), alongside Taiwan-based painters including 楊靜芬 and 林耀煌 (台灣之美‧亞洲之心國際巡迴展, TJJ archive).
