Li Wei
€ 29,00
A man falls to earth headfirst, cutting into the ground and resting there, feet up, like an unexploded bomb. A young woman humors a playful pet, an artistís head, as it bites the hem of her skirt. Li Wei, a young Beijing performance artist, has begun to pop up in the American media, and with images like these, it's no wonder. He received his earliest significant public exposure following an impromptu event at the 2000 Shanghai Biennial, in which he put his head through a hole in a mirror and attended (and was ejected from) a crowded reception.
This first monograph catalogues the perceptive and often funny insights of young Beijing performance artist Li Wei into China today and tomorrow. The work includes images from significant public exposures, such as an impromptu event at the 2000 Shanghai Biennial where he put his head through a hole in a mirror. Recent pieces featured include the public 'Green Gay Flag' and the private 'It Would Not Die Away Like Such,' which have been both politically and sexually daring. The book provides a comprehensive look at the artist's work, which has begun to pop up in American media with striking visual imagery.
