"I am a student of mathematics. I’ve always had a fantastical side, and I’ve always been interested in exploring complex and mysterious things.
A painter can make a complex magic square, but my forms are recognisably calligraphic and are not purely visual.
They are like new characters." - Wei Ligang

Wei Ligang, born in 1964 in Shanxi, was originally trained in Mathematics at Nankai University in Tianjin. Since 1985, he has held solo and group exhibitions in China and overseas, including institutions such as the National Art Museum of China and the Shanghai Museum of Art. He has lived and worked in Beijing since 1995.
