Li Chen, born in 1963, held a solo exhibition at Venice Biennale in 2007 and was the first Chinese artist invited to showcase a solo exhibition in a century. His sculptures, exhibiting and alluring ambiguity between lightness and heaviness as metaphors of spirituality and material, express his personal emotions, combine oriental spirit and western aesthetics, convey contemporary visual beauty, and allure current affairs by means of humor, thus creating works reborn from the thousand-year tradition.
