李洪涛先生曾作为第一位在法国巴黎卢浮宫办展的中国画家，先后在德国路易威希博物馆、被誉为“世界艺术之窗”的美国梅瑞迪国际艺术中心、美国国会雷朋大厦、美国巴尔地摩国家博物馆、纽约联合国总部大厦、俄罗斯国家博物馆、日本东京都国家美术馆、法国皮尔卡丹艺术中心等20多个世界级艺术殿堂举办过个人画展。反响强烈，盛赞不绝。他在法国卢浮宫的展览，中央电视台、国务院新闻办网站、凤凰卫视等多家媒体都纷纷给予报道。

其作品在欧美和日本等国获得过“杰出领导奖”、“杰出艺术设计奖”、“国际文化艺术交流贡献奖”等多种奖项和荣誉。2000年在梵高的故乡荷兰举办的由东西方11位著名艺术家参展的“跨世纪美术大展”中，李洪涛的作品《流水的夏日》一举夺得“梵高金奖”。1997年在日本举行的艺术大展中，其作品《天长地久》获日本首相森喜朗署名的“特别优秀奖”。

俄罗斯国家历史博物馆（收购并珍藏他28幅作品）、美国国家图书馆、意大利卡萨雷斯博物馆等世界诸多著名博物馆、图书馆以及美国前总统卡特、老布什等多国政要、社会名流以争相收藏他的画作为荣。其中意大利几个大博物馆和美术学院一共收藏了他60幅作品，实属罕见！
