Hu Wei, a Chinese artist and researcher, works mostly in Beijing and Amsterdam.

 

He obtained a BA from Central Academy of Fine Arts (CAFA) in 2012 and an MA from Dutch Art Institute (DAI) in particular on art and political theory, artistic writing and making in 2016. As an artist, he does a lot of art practices and participates in residencies and exhibitions. Hu's works have been exhibited nationally and internationally, with shows in Amsterdam, Berlin, Tijuana, Beijing, Shanghai, etc. Hu Wei is interested in the phenomenological and political-economic aspects of the digital for contemporary art and the human condition, including the relationship between the abstract and concrete, between material and immaterial. Moreover, he also concerns about the marginalisation, transformation and potentiality of the local arising from globalisation and digitalisation. Often investigating local issues, such as ethics, culture, and labour, in the context of the global, his description combines individuality and social realism. These investigations take place as writing, presentation, video and installation.
