CREATORS

* Xu Bing (Chinese, b. 1955)  - artist
Xu Bing is one of China’s most outstanding conceptual contemporary artists. He is internationally recognized for using Chinese characters, the written word or character and language to challenge assumptions about human society and communication. He grew up in Beijing, was initially trained in printmaking, and received his MFA from the Central Academy of Fine Art in Beijing in 1987. His multi-disciplinary artwork has been displayed at prestigious venues and is held in numerous collections worldwide. Xu moved to the US in 1990 where he lived for 18 years; today he lives and works in New York and Beijing.
