Qin Feng, United States

Qin Feng was born in Xinjiang, China in 1961, his upbringing greatly influencing his work. He graduated from Shandong University of Art and Design in 1985, and has taught at the Berlin University of the Arts and the Central Academy of Fine Arts. In 2007, he founded the Museum of Contemporary Art Beijing, which exhibits both international and Chinese artworks to create dialogues between the East and the West. He is currently a research associate at Harvard University's Fairbank Center for Chinese Studies. Qin Feng has won several art awards and national art contribution awards in both Europe and America, with his "post-modern ink painting" being featured in many museum collections and art institutions across the world. As an artist and scholar across both Eastern and Western cultures, Qin Feng's works are poetically compatible with the romance of Western expressionist philosophy and the charm of Chinese writing. Through the development and application of multi-media, traditional and modern materials, the form, expression and language give a fresh personal context and style. His works not only have the profound fusion of traditional East and West contexts, but also the richness of Oriental philosophical abstract expression.
