An exhibition of four large-scale sculptures created by Beijing-based artist Liu Wei for The Genesis Facade Commission, shown on The Met's Fifth Avenue exterior. A key figure of a generation of Chinese artists who sought to define conceptual art on their own terms, Liu remixes fragments from the urban environment, historical sources, and bodily forms, inviting contemplation, surprise, and revelation to pierce through our perceptions of reality.
