Qin Feng was born in 1961 in Xinjiang and studied at the Shangdong Art Institute. In 1996 Qin moved to Germany as part of a cultural exchange programme and worked as a teacher at the Academy of Art Berlin until 1999. In 2007 he returned to Beijing and founded the Museum of Contemporary Art Beijing. In 2008, he became a research associate at the Fairbank Center for Chinese Studies at Harvard University. Qin manifests his energy in his paintings through powerful and uninhibited brushstrokes. Ink, symbols and calligraphy are key elements in his art, in which he juggles the Chinese tradition and his experience from America and Europe, such as abstract expressionism
