The Visiting East Asian Professional (VEAP) Program at Washington University in St. Louis welcomes to campus Mr. Domingo Lim, also known as Ruo Fei. Mr. Lim is an accomplished calligrapher who specializes in double-handed calligraphy. That is, he can paint two lines of text in mirror image or both identical with his two hands simultaneously. Born in 1939 in the Philippines, Mr. Lim moved to China when he was eight years old. He went to middle school in Fujian and high school in Jimei. He learned his art during the decade-long Cultural Revolution during which time he was unable to leave Shanghai. Over the past 60 years Mr. Lim has striven to master the art of calligraphy and has dedicated his life to sharing the art with others.

Mr. Lim arrived in St. Louis on October 30 and departs November 19. During his three weeks in St. Louis Mr. Lim is teaching a short-course on calligraphy through University College on Tuesdays and Thursdays. On November 11 he will conduct a calligraphy demonstration for Art students and a public demonstration at 6pm in Whitaker Hall Auditorium.
