Hu Weiqi

Hu Weiqi (胡卫齐), born 1987 in Yiyang, Hunan Province, China, graduated from the Sichuan Fine Arts
Institute in 2015. His works of painting present the complexity of China’s social environment (politically
and culturally) by drawing special attention to the effects of its rapidly transitioning society. Using two
bold colors to symbolize the inner conflicts experienced by the younger generation, Hu depicts the in-between position of a generation puzzled by the constant changes in their environment. His works have been featured in a range of group shows including 2015 Youth Art 100 Start Exhibition (National Agricultural Exhibition Hall, Beijing), College Color (Central Academy of Fine Arts, Beijing), Individual Visions (Hong Kong Cadillac Center, Hong Kong and Chengdu), Spring – Chongqing Young Artists Exhibition (Zhongshan Art Museum, Chongqing), Go! Young! Youth Cutting-Edge Invitational Exhibition (Art Center, Beijing), and The Trouble – Four Exhibitions (New Sound Art Space, Chongqing).
