Geng Jianyi was born in Zhengzhou, Henan Province in 1962. Artist Geng Jianyi’s work is characterized by his uncompromising resistance to various forms of modernity. Mr. Geng rose to prominence in China in the mid-1980s as an influential member of the avant-garde art movement known as the Eighth Five-Year New Wave, and since then he has tried to foster this resistance with a wide range of techniques — including various forms of painterlature, coloring, lithography, photography, cinematographic conversion, chemical alteration and textual juxtaposing.
