Monograph of the Chinese artist Liu Wei published on the occasion of the exhibition 'Density' at Mason's Yard, White Cube, London from January to March 2014. Apart from selection of works from the series 'Density', this monograph also includes selection of works from the series 'Liberation', 'Truth Dimension', and 'Jungle'.
'Working across a range of media Liu Wei creates work that reflects China’s rapidly transforming socio-political and urban landscape.
Part of a new generation in China that grew up in a period of urban expansion, the artist has frequently turned to urban themes in his work. Gleaning the materials for his work from his immediate environment, he alters and reassembles detritus found on building sites—such as metal piping, wooden slats, old doors and large sheets of canvas—into highly complex sculptural and architectural installations.' - from the gallery's website.
With artist biography.
