Hou Hanru: On The Mid-Ground
Paris based Chinese curator Hou Hanru is undeniably one of the most important, active Asian curators on the global art scene today. He is one of the earliest curators to explore postmodern identity’s issues of globalized mobility and nomadity, as well as hybridity, in-betweeness, the ‘Third Space’ and artists living in the diaspora. As a Chinese migrant living in France himself, he has used his own experience and position to explore these issues through his unique style of curatorship.
