Less than two weeks ago Chinese artist Ren Hang visited Sweden for his opening at Fotografiska. Last Friday the world was met by the sad news that the 30-year old photographer had committed suicide. Hang was known for his provocative pictures and poetry. His often explicit work had been exhibited in galleries all over the world and he shot for major fashion brands and magazines such as Gucci and GQ. He captured intimate portraits of a generation young adults growing up in post-Mao China.So make sure to take the opportunity to go to Fotografiska to see his intuitive and playful pictures of how he transforms naked bodies into sculptural objects.
