Zhou Xiaohu 周啸虎



Zhou Xiaohu is a new media artist born in 1960 in Changzhou, graduated from the Sichuan Academy of Fine Arts in Chengdu, China in 1989. He participated to various international exhibitions such as the Shanghai Biennale, the Chengdu Biennale, "Between Past and Future: New Photography and Video From China" at the Victoria and Albert Museum (London), the Smart Museum (Chicago) and the International Center of Photography (New York), “the Real Thing, Contemporary Art from China”, Tate Liverpool.
