BABEL WORLD: DU ZHENJUN

Du Zhenjun solo exhibition

Shanghai

Overview

Shanghai – Pearl Lam Galleries is pleased to present Babel World, a solo exhibition by Paris-based, Shanghai-born artist Du Zhenjun. The exhibition will feature a selection from the artist’s recent series of photography works, together with an early multimedia video work, and a new media installation created specifically for this show. Du Zhenjun works primarily in digital media, which the artist believes is the most relevant way of making art in an era largely dominated and shaped by digital technologies. Du’s interactive new media installations and digitally manipulated photographs have made him one of China’s most recognised digital artists. The exhibition title, Babel World, comes from the artist’s series of photographs of the same name, which emanate his imagination and visions of post-dystopian ruins, as an artist’s delineation and retort to what the world is becoming.
