Hong Hao, My Things No. 1, 2001, color photograph, 60 cm × 95 cm (23-5/8" × 37-3/8") © Hong Hao Hong Hao Details:b. 1965, Beijing, ChinaPace Publications: (opens in a new window) Shop Now Read More Much of Hong Hao’s work features assembled and scanned images of found objects, including maps, books, tickets, receipts, banknotes, food, and containers.The artist’s multidisciplinary practice—encompassing photography, printmaking, collage, video installation, and painting—examines the complex relationships individuals have with physical possessions, the paradox of material excess and aspiration within a communist society, and the ironies embedded in China’s geopolitical history.After graduating in 1989 from the printmaking department of the prestigious Central Academy of Fine Arts in Beijing, Hong embarked upon a body of work of photographic collages made by assembling items such as maps, receipts, food, and banknotes in a scanner, which flattened these items, upending perceived hierarchies of value. Other well-known bodies of work include Selected Scriptures (1992–2000), in which Hong made prints of maps that subverted the tradition of the woodblock-printed book with its implications of fixed meaning, and My Things (2001–present), in which he organized his possessions by form and color. Since 2013, Hong has expanded his painting practice in series such as Reciprocating (2012– present), Reflection (2013– present), and Everchanging Appearance (2017–present), where only silhouettes of objects are delineated as abstract shapes. In contrast to previous bodies of work, which were often grounded in the process of mechanical scanning, Hong places objects directly on the canvas, using a pen to trace and expand outlines. In his The Realm of Matters series (2020–present), the artist inscribes fragments of writing onto shards of porcelain from the Song Dynasty—obtained through online auction platforms—that are arranged in patterns that simultaneously suggest and disrupt meaningful perception of language.Hong has presented solo exhibitions at institutions worldwide, including Hong Hao: FOTOGRAFíA, Dolores de Sierra, Madrid (2009); Hong Hao: AS IT IS, Beijing Commune (2011–12, 2024); Hong Hao: My Things, Museum of Modern Art in Bologna, Italy (2015); Hong Hao: The Realm of Matters, SALON TEN WF CENTRAL, Beijing (2021); Hong Hao: New Works, Pace Gallery, Hong Kong (2022); Unparalleled Collection Series Vol.2: Hong Hao, Wonespace, Shenzhen, China (2023); and Hong Hao: Light, Beijing Commune (2024–25), among others.
