Chinese Artist Zhao Zhao on His Latest Project With Louis Vuitton Share
Born in 1982 in Shihezi, a city skirted by the railway in the foothills of the Tian Shan mountain range in northern Xinjiang Province, artist Zhao Zhao has come a long way. Today, based between Beijing and Los Angeles, Zhao is one of China’s most promising generation of ’80s-born artists, having exhibited around the world at institutions such as New York’s MoMA PS1, UCCA Beijing, MAXXI in Rome and Berlin’s Museum of Asian Art.
This season, there’s also a high-profile collaboration with French luxury-goods giant Louis Vuitton on its Artycapucines handbag project, for which the brand sought out a diverse list of six international artists to reimagine the handbag with a tabula rasa – Beatriz Milhazes, Jean-Michel Othnoiel, Josh Smith, Henry Taylor and Liu Wei, as well as Zhao Zhao.
