About

Why this artist matters now

XU ZHEN® is a Shanghai-based artist and brand operating across sculpture, installation, and performance, known for appropriating and recombining cultural artifacts, consumer aesthetics, and art-historical references into provocative large-scale works. The registered-trademark name signals a deliberate collapse of authorship into corporate identity. Major presentations include the Long Museum, Shanghai, and exhibitions at MoMA PS1.
