Hang Ren Ren Hang, who took his own life on February 23, 201 - Lot 120
Hang Ren Ren Hang, who took his own life on February 23, 2017, was anything but a rebel. Modest in stature, shy by nature and prone to bouts of depression, this 29-year-old photographer from Beijing was nonetheless at the forefront of Chinese artists' fight for creative freedom. Like his defender, Ai Weiwei, Ren produced works deemed dangerous to society and the Communist state. Yet Ren asserted: "The political ideas expressed in my images have nothing to do with China. It's Chinese politics that want to get into my art. One of my exhibitions has already been cancelled by the Chinese government for 'suspicion of sex'." Taschen
