Liu Wei is one of the most interesting young artists working in China. He was born in 1972 and graduated from the Hangzhou Academy of Fine Arts in 1996. Wei is a multidimensional artist, and practices many art forms including: performance art, sculpture, photography, video, painting and installations. Liu Wei’s early work explored cultural, social and political norms. As his work evolved he focused on everyday objects and materials, “to seek the hidden value they contain”.
