After years working as a press photographer, Luo Dan traveled across China from east to west, photographing people and landscapes. From 2010 to 2012, he lived in a remote valley in Yunnan within a community whose way of life has remained almost unchanged for a hundred years, and revived a forgotten photographic process: wet plate collodion.
Between 2007 and 2009, Liu Ke carried out the solo project "Still Lake", retracing his paternal family’s roots in the Three Gorges region, which was flooded following the construction in 1994 of the world’s largest hydroelectric dam.
Taca Sui’s works resonate with the elliptical nature of the poems: his images seem to remain suspended, caught in a strange sense of waiting.
Trained from an early age in calligraphy and traditional ink painting, Yang Yongliang set out from the beginning of his career to connect classical art with contemporary art. Yang combines photography and new media techniques to construct landscapes that appear natural and evoke traditional shanshui painting (“mountain and water” landscapes), but which in reality depict the effects of urban development in China.
Director of the UCCA Center for Contemporary Art in Beijing since 2011, he hosted the most important Picasso exhibition in China in 2019, produced and toured by Doors.
