Mostly known for his photographs from the series "Hiding in the City", a work he initiated in 2005, we often forgot that Liu Bolin is also a sculptor. Born in 1973 in Shandong, a province in eastern China, in the south of Beijing, he first obtained a degree in sculpture at the University of Fine Arts of Shandong. He then taught this art for nearly four years, before undertaking two further years on studies at the Institute of Fine Arts in China. The exhibition returns to this type of work exhibiting the latest sculptures of the artist. Now internationally recognized as one of the leading figures of the contemporary Chinese art scene thanks to his photographic "camouflage" around different cities of the world, Liu Bolin proves with these pieces that art of concealment can also find is place in his sculptural work."The man goes blind in the world, he can’t see clear. He hides himself many things, and we hide him things too." Liu Bolin.

刘勃麟自2005年来以《都市迷藏(Hiding in the
City)》摄影系列闻名,人们因而淡忘了艺术家的雕塑作品。1973年生于山东,位于中国东北,北京以南。毕业于山东美术学院雕塑系,在教学四年经历后
又于中央美院深造两年。本次展览展示了他最近期的雕塑作品。《都市迷藏》的“伪装”奠定了刘勃麟在中国当代艺术界内的地位后,艺术家又以令人震撼的雕塑形
式展现了同一个主题。刘勃麟说过,“人们在世界里越发盲目,越来越看不清楚。他在某种程度上自我伪装着,而我们也对他隐瞒着自己。”
