Wei Dong 1968-

Wei Dong, like many other intellectuals of his generation, endured the harshest period of the Cultural Revolution. Unafraid to create works that boldly depart from convention, Wei Dong’s audacious and androgynous nudes are placed within a carefully constructed landscape that blends together classical and modern themes, both Eastern and Western, which he has so thoroughly studied. Wei Dong is one of the most imaginative painters with an extraordinary sense of irony and the ingenuity to create innovative works that are relevant and interesting to contemporary audiences
