Du Haijun
“What I want to express are certain commonalities of architecture in society. Through those windows, we see the lives of ordinary people under the state of social life. These are precisely the fragments of our city's memory and also an experience of the living environment in an industrialized society.“
Born in Jiangsu province in 1978, Du Haijun graduated from China Academy of Art and now living in Shanghai. He has participated in both domestic and international exhibitions and was awarded many prizes, including the Golden Award for the International Salon of France. Du's work demonstrates his understanding of how urbanization remolds cityscape and how such squared residences whisper the secrecy of everyday drama. His "N Windows" has been collected by the National Art Museum of China, "Office Story" has been collected by the Harbor City, Hong Kong, and “Window” and “Cellist” by the Korean Consulate.
