Guanyu Xu: Resident Aliens

Exhibition Period: 7 January  - 15 March 2023

Venue: IS A GALLERY, Jing'an District, Shanghai

Galerie du Monde is pleased to share our Chicago-based artist Guanyu Xu is invited to hold his solo exhibition at IS A GALLERY, Shanghai. In Resident Aliens, Xu makes his images inside the homes of willing participants who are visa holders. He constructs temporary installations inside their homes from previously printed images of the same interiors and an assortment of their personal ephemera and photographs. The resulting final image breaks the interior into visually puzzling quadrants. The compositions confuse the simple domestic spaces and create what appears to be a hall of mirrors that his camera captures.
