Geng, Jianyi (Chinese painter, 1962-2017)

Note: Jianyi produced work in various media including collage, photography, video, and conceptual installations. He studied oil painting at Zhejiang Academy of Fine Arts (now the China Academy of Art) from 1981 to 1985. With artists Zhang Peili, Wu Shanzhuan, Wang Guangyi, and Wang Qiang, he explored Marcel Duchamp’s idea of “non-retinal art.” Jianyi and Peili organized the exhibition “New Space ’85” in 1985 at the Gallery of Zhejiang Academy of Fine Arts in Hangzhou, a show which presented some of the earliest examples of installation art in China. They also cofounded Pond Society (Chi She), which staged collective works in outdoor locations.
