’At times, true
reality doesn’t
feel real, and
this is the gap
I focus on...’
Born:
1972 – Beijing,
China.
‘Nudità’:
Liu's solo exhibition
takes its title from
an essay by the
Italian philosopher,
Giorgio Agamben;
featuring new
installation, sculpture
& painting works
conceived as a
summary of enquiries
into the state
of society at this
particular, and
pivotal, moment
in history.
‘Liu connects
Agamben’s theories
of ‘nudity’ to the
current emptied
state of the urban
landscape and our
increased physical
distance from one
another.’
On view at:
