Back to original languageAbout Wei-Yang
After collaborating with the Meymac contemporary art center for the exhibition project on the 60s of the French artistic movement "Support/Surface" at Tsinghua University in Beijing as part of the Franco-Chinese festival "Croisements" 2019, I am developing my curatorial work which focuses on contemporary popular culture and political discourse on cultural hegemony. My curatorial research and reflections focus on post-Internet issues and its means and processes of production. My exhibition or event projects are often built from different artistic disciplines as an experiment that bears witness to specific cases.
My first exhibition project was carried out at the Meymac contemporary art center in March 2022, bringing together seven artists whose artistic practice pays particular attention to video games. (See portfolio) They use video games as a medium and their approach borrows political discourse and reflection on the tools for representing the world.
In parallel with my curatorial practice, I translate texts by artists or authors. I am also a web designer (WordPress). This is my new professional activity for the past year. I offer the creation of custom, beautiful and easy-to-administer websites on WordPress for a modest fee. I also offer website management with a reasonable package.
