Wenda Gu
Wenda Gu is a Chinese artist born in 1955 whose practice spans installation, sculpture, and large-scale public works. Working across materials including neon, mirrors, and found objects, Gu's installations frequently engage with themes of cultural identity, displacement, and the intersection of Eastern and Western visual traditions. His monumental site-specific works operate at the boundary between sculpture and architecture, often transforming institutional and urban spaces. This profile will be expanded as more verified source material becomes available.
