Anti Liu

Born in Taiwan and currently living in New York, Anti Liu creates compelling sculptures that explore the intersections between human relationships, politics, and history, and how these connections come to define our modern world. Working in a variety of media, Liu effectively bridges the cultural gaps between the militaristic Taiwan of his childhood and the America he has come to know and embrace. Through the tensions that reverberate throughout his sculptures, meanings unfold, revealing subtexts that challenge the very fabric of our society and dare us as viewers to reconsider all we have come to know and experience.

As Liu explains, “I feel that my work not only comments on what we need to change in our society, but… I work consciously to create a piece that the viewer perceives in states of awareness. Within each stage, a stronger meaning is revealed and the viewer is subtly shown my intentions.” In the end, Liu’s art highlights and calls into question the acts of violence, satires, intrigues, and ironies we confront every day.
