HE LIPING
Born in Yilong (Sichuan province) in 1982, lives and works in Chengdu.
He Liping is with no doubt one of Chinas most interesting emergent artists in the field of action art. He graduated from the Chengdu Institute of Fine Art, where he studied at the Fine Arts Sculpture Department from 2002 to 2007. He has since then participated in a number of action art festivals and events in China and has developed his own personal expression based on a particular conception of presence and space.
His work is conceptual yet physical, treating subject matters that engages the audience in works like Drawing a Cake Allows You to Be Hungry or Heaven and Men Are One, Reaching the Same Goal by Different Routes. Working with his own conception of body and mind in time, He Liping has developed an important body of work where the personal and the social join eachother to express human vulnerability as well as solidarity and togetherness as qualities that unites us as being.
