Huang Yu Long 黄玉龙

1983 | China

Huang Yu Long is best known for his sculptures of faceless Laughing Buddha in hoodies, which portrays an exchange of Eastern tradition and Western contemporary style. Huang’s faceless Buddha sculpture is transformed into a break-dancer who wears crystal gloves and shiny decoration or poses hip-pop gestures. Sometimes the sculpture looks like a child. It is a symbol to keep reminding Huang himself to be a dream maker in his art.

Huang was born in 1983. Graduated with Bachelor of Fine Art in the Sculpture Department of Jingdezhen Ceramic Institute. Huang is an emerging Chinese artist who has participated in several important exhibitions; for instance, Gwangju Biennale, Korea in 2013 and Shenzhen Biennale, Luohu Art Museum in 2018. He was selected “25 Contemporary Chinese Artists You Need to Know” by Complex, an American magazine for Pop culture.

黄玉龙最为人所熟知的作品是身穿卫衣的无脸弥勒佛,展现东方传统与西方当代风格的融合。黄玉龙把弥勒佛与嘻哈舞者的形象结合,戴着镶有锆石水晶的手套与闪亮的装饰品,摆弄着嘻哈的经典姿势。有时卫衣雕像会变身为孩子的造型,这是黄玉龙自己的象征,不断提醒自己做为艺术造梦者的目标。黄玉龙出生于1983年,景德镇陶瓷学院本科。黄玉龙是一位中国青年艺术家,并且在中国与世界各地累积许多展览纪录,例如2013年受邀参与韩国光州双年展與2018年深圳艺术双年展,他曾经被美国的大众潮流杂志《Complex》推选为“25位应该被认识的中国艺术家”。
