简介Biography
蒲英玮（1989年出生），现工作和生活于北京。2013年毕业于四川美术学院，2018年毕业于里昂国立高等美术学院，获硕士学位并获评委会最高嘉奖。作为新一代政治性观念艺术的积极参与者，蒲英玮创造性地继承并发展了社会主义美术与中国早期前卫艺术的视觉与思想脉络，从革命的艺术与意识形态宣传两种异质同构的文化命题中汲取营养，形成了其独特的语言系统与历史视阈。其实践以“如何向自身与世界阐释当代中国的复杂性”为核心诉求，跨越绘画、写作、设计、策展、讲演等多种形态，艺术家也将这种在公共领域中所践行的多重身份理解为一次对艺术思潮的全面动员。
Pu Yingwei (b. 1989) lives and works in Beijing, China. As an active contributor to the new generation of political conceptual art in China, he critically engages with the socialist art genealogy. Pu Yingwei dedicates his work to articulating the changes in China's identity amid globalization and exploring the deeper impact of China’s modernization and development model on global patterns through cross-cultural narratives. His practice employs various media, including painting, video, design, writing, and lecturing. He has developed a "new internationalist" artistic language based on his perception of Eastern civilization. In recent years, Pu Yingwei has deepened his global engagement, traveling to Eastern Europe, Africa, Central Asia, Southeast Asia, the Americas, and the Caribbean, including regions like the Balkan Peninsula and Ukraine, which are currently in conflict. Pu received his BFA from Sichuan Fine Art Institute in 2013, DNSEP (MFA with Félicitation du jury) from École Nationale Supérieure des Beaux-Arts de Lyon in 2018. He has been the recipient of several awards, including the John Moores Painting Prize, the Golden Hibiscus Award for Photography, and the International Awards for Art Criticism Prize (IAAC) for his writings. Pu has been recognized in prestigious lists such as Forbes China Contemporary Young Artists of the Year, Gen. T Asian Emerging Pioneers list, China Art power 100, and the HuaYu Youth Award, among others. He also received the TAG New Contemporary Art Prize, the Jimei Arles Discovery Reward, Porsche “Young Chinese Artist of the Year” Award, and was named the first “FT Chinese Artist of the year” by Financial Times. Pu Yingwei's works have been exhibited at numerous prestigious venues and institutions both domestically and internationally, including the Staatliche Kunstsammlungen Dresden, the Walker Art Gallery (Liverpool), the 13th Shanghai Biennale, the Caen Film Festival, Nouvel Institut Franco-Chinois (Lyon), the National Art Museum of China, the Power Station of Art in Shanghai (Shanghai), the OCAT Museums, and the Taikang Space (Beijing).

Pu Ying Wei (蒲英玮, b. 1989) is a Chinese conceptual artist whose practice critically engages with political imagery, historical narratives, and the complexity of contemporary Chinese identity. His creative style synthesizes the visual and ideological languages of socialist revolutionary art and early Chinese avant-garde movements, reinterpreting them into a distinctive, multidisciplinary system. He describes his approach as a "total mobilization of artistic thought," blurring the boundaries between painting, writing, design, curation, and public speech to examine how China’s past and present are constructed and perceived.
His representative works often combine historical symbols, typography, and layered materiality. Recent key pieces include:
- *Red Computer* (2025): oil on canvas, acrylic, silkscreen, paper collage, and ink on rice paper—a fusion of propaganda aesthetics with digital-age motifs.
- The *Intelligent Capital (Trend of Social Culture)* series (2025), comprising multiple color-coded variations (Bright Red, Purple Red, Gold Red, Cyan Red, Scarlet Red): works on canvas incorporating oil, acrylic, mineral pigments, silkscreen, ink, gold leaf, and rice paper—these interrogate the intersection of ideology, labor, and technology.
- *Easy Rider* (2026): oil, acrylic, mulberry paper, silkscreen, gold leaf, and graphite on canvas.
- The mythological triptych *Dong Jun*, *Xiang Jun / Xiang Furen*, *Dong Huang Tai Yi*, and *Yun Zhong Jun* (2023): mixed-media installations that draw on ancient Chinese poetry and ritual music.
His work is consistently marked by dense symbolic layering, the repurposing of ideological text and imagery, and a hybrid use of traditional and industrial materials, all aimed at unpacking the narratives that shape collective memory and cultural identity.
