    What Does An Artist Depend on When Making Art? “Xu Bing: Found in Translation” was unveiled at the Museum of Art Pudong

    Xu Bing has remained highly sensitive to the epoch that he lives in during the creative process for over 40 years, while his work has always been closely related to social issues. Through his creative process from craftsmanship to thinking and with the guidance of thinking on craftsmanship he has achieved a balance and mutual promotion between “art” and “technique.” The diverse and penetrating nature of art media he has mastered is recognized and acclaimed internationally as well as in the world of contemporary art which affects the overall composition and depth of contemporary Chinese art on various levels. What’s more important is that the core of Xu Bing’s artistic mentality transforms and reconstructs the fixed understanding of people through literary, humorous and wise creative vocabulary, and it further activates and promotes previous thinking, providing a new perspective and bringing new thoughts.
