The publication Wang Yuyang: Chaosmosis follows the eponymous exhibition held at Shenzen Art Museum in 2024. Focused on techno-art, Wang Yuyang's work explores the relationships between technology and art, nature and artificiality, material and immaterial, employing an interdisciplinary and multimedia approach. The artist's portfolio spans various fields such as artificial intelligence, genetic engineering, digital media, and mechanical devices.
Featuring a rich selection of artwork images and installation views, along with insightful contributions by Professors Zhang Ga, Siegfried Zielinski, Caroline A. Jones, Mark B. N. Hansen, and curator Rudolf Frieling, this publication offers a deep view on Wang's practice and innovative research.
Wang Yuyang (born 1979 in Harbin, Heilongjiang, China, lives and works in Beijing) graduated from the Central Academy of Fine Arts, Beijing, with an MA in 2008 and currently teaches in the Experimental Art department of the same school. Wang Yuyang is one of the most accomplished Chinese artists of his generation, whose multi-medial practice, encompassing sculpture, painting, photography and video, questions the experience of technology—that is, our interactions with the digital and the robotic—while utilizing everyday objects to create the illusion of futurism.
