Xiao Hui Wang (Chinese: 王小慧; pinyin: Wáng Xiǎohuì) is a Chinese artist, author and socialite who works mainly in photography, sculpture, design, and media art. Her work has been exhibited internationally, and she has been the recipient of numerous awards and honors; the city of Suzhou has named an art institution after her (the Xiao Hui Wang Art Museum), a rare honor for a living artist. She has been profiled by the prestigious Hong Kong magazine Phoenix Weekly as one of the Top Fifty Most Influential Chinese Worldwide. She has been a professor at Shanghai's Tongji University since 2003, where she runs the Xiao Hui Wang Art Center. She divides her time between China and Germany.

Early life

Xiao Hui Wang was born in Tianjin. Her mother was a music professor and her father an engineer. She grew up during the Great Leap Forward and the Cultural Revolution, a hard time for "black" (politically suspect) cultural families such as hers. In 1978, she enrolled at Tongji University to study architecture, receiving a bachelor's degree in the discipline in 1983. A few years later, in 1986, she received a Masters in Architecture from the same university, and married classmate (and promising architect) Yu Lin.

Subsequently, as recipients of scholarships from the German government, both she and her husband moved to Germany to study further. Between 1987 and 1991, she studied a PhD at the Technical University of Munich; and between 1990 and 1992, she studied at the Munich Film Academy. In 1991, on the way to Prague, a fatal car crash took her husband's life and left Wang in the hospital. Having dabbled in photography since she was 13, she unexpectedly began to document her recovery visually. As the days went on, she took pictures of her hospital bed, of herself in her recovering state, of her hospital room, of her doctor, of friends who visited her. This critical experience gradually transformed her, giving her life new meaning and influencing her decision to become a professional artist.

Professional life

In 1992, after her recovery, she began holding photographic exhibitions again. Her first one during this period was held in Munich. The second one, in 1993, was held in Berlin.

Aside from her photographic activities, she also began working on numerous film and television projects in Europe. She wrote scripts for the Bayerischer Rundfunk series Kulturen der Welt in that same year; then, in 1993, she was a consultant for the Sino-German documentary Families in Beijing: Courtyard House. In 1994, she wrote and directed her surrealistic art film The Broken Moon, efforts which won awards in Germany and Austria.

In 1995, she was the artistic supervisor for The Chair, a Sino-Japanese production, and wrote a screenplay called Blue Candle Burnt Out. She directed a documentary film on Peking Opera in 1996.

In 1997, she held three photographic exhibits, two in Germany and one in China; six more would follow between 1998 and 2001, one in Switzerland, two in China and the rest in Germany. She won three awards during this time.

In 2001, she was invited to become a professor at her alma mater, Tongji University, and founded the Xiao Hui Wang Art Center in 2003. In 2008, the Center won the international design competition for the 2010 Shanghai Expo Urban Footprint Theme Pavilion. Wang's growing reputation led to further work with international brands (Christofle, BASF, BMW, Cartier, A. Lange & Söhne, Jaeger-LeCoultre, Audi and Van Cleef & Arpels among others) and large-scale art projects from Chinese local governments.

Cooperation with Brands

In 2004, Wang organized an exhibition of her works (titled Boundless) for BMW in Munich. The exhibition attracted over 90,000 people, 5% of the city's population at the time. She also presided over a series of tie-in events titled "Dialogue between East and West", broadcast live on television. In attendance were Christian Ude (Mayor of Munich) and his wife Edith von Welser-Ude, Chinese Minister of Technology Wan Gang, Marketing Director of BMW Germany Dr. Wolfgang Armbrecht, architect Albert Speer Jr., writer Tilman Spengler, Prof. Dr. Guan Yuqian and banker Peter von Guretzky.

In 2005, BASF invited her to organize a creative photography contest. Over 26,000 submissions were received.

In 2010, Wang was asked by BMW MINI to design the "Car of Dreams". Its unveiling, MINI RELOADED, was part of the 2010 Dream Plan, a corresponding, highly publicized event in Shanghai which showcased 10000 Dreams, her multimedia work that centered on the written, painted, photographed and videotaped aspirations of 10,000 youths. The opening ceremony attracted 1000 visitors.

In 2011, Wang became the first Asian artist to design and produce limited-edition silver goods for renowned silverware brand Christofle (other artists who had worked with the brand in this manner are Man Ray, Jean Cocteau, Roger Tallon and Andree Putman). She also arrived at similar arrangements with Meissen in 2010 and Misis in 2014, producing limited-edition works and jewelry for these brands.

In 2012, Wang was invited to exhibit for Audi at the Shanghai Art Gallery. Other exhibiting artists included Zhang Huan, Tan Dun, Sun Liang and Miao Xiaochun.

Cooperation with Governments

In 2004, Wang organized an event for the Hangzhou government titled "Hanghzou – In the Eyes of German Photographers". It showcased the work of ten German photographers who chose Hangzhou as their subject, and who received Certificates of Honor from the mayor of said city. A commemorative album (West Lake Charms) was also published. Zhao Wuji visited the exhibition.

In 2007, the government of Tianjin held a momentous retrospective exhibition of her work at the Tianjin Art Museum. Wang was also invited to give an academic seminar at the city's library in 2008; two government ministers from Beijing travelled to attend the opening ceremony, which included a speech from Mayor of Munich Christian Ude advocating Wang. The city also asked Wang to design a Creative Industry Park to renovate the city's old industrial area.

In 2008, Chinese government telephone company China Unicom asked Wang to design a series of telephone cards based on her artwork (Eros of Flowers and My Last 100 Years). It was the same year the Xiao Hui Wang Art Center entered and won the design competition for the Urban Footprint Pavilion of the 2010 Shanghai World Expo (over 70 design firms from all over the globe had competed for the opportunity). The project brought the Center exposure to millions of people from around the world and commissions for further projects.

In 2010, Chinese Deputy Minister of Finance Zhang Shaochun visited the Xiao Hui Wang Art Center in Shanghai to explore collaborative projects with Wang, as did Latin American and the Caribbean Unit Chief of UNESCO Nuria Sanz in 2013.

Also in 2010, Wang became the first Asian artist to design stamps for Liechtenstein and to hold exhibitions in the Vaduz Culture Centre.

In 2011, Wang's Art Center designed large-scale multimedia and light projections for the ancient quarters of Datong. That same year，the center also provided the general design for the 13,000 m2 Langfang Project Centre as well as its outdoor artworks and multimedia projection. The Center also designed the outdoor art of the Tianjin Innov-China eGroup Building, another project for which it was the general designer.

In 2012, the Center designed the Nanjing World Trade Center Multimedia Exhibition Hall, which included a permanent multimedia installation, and multimedia projections for the city of Nantong. In the same year, the government of Suzhou invited Wang to head its cultural advisory board, granting her a Ming dynasty mansion in which to base a museum and commissions for cultural projects. Among the latter undertaken was the Suzhou Creative and Design Industry Cultural Expo held in 2013. The mansion, renovated as the Xiao Hui Wang Art Museum, opened its doors later that year.

Reception

Manfred Schneckenburger has described her as "an icon of progress for the younger generation despite the Chinese consciousness of tradition". Her work has mainly focused on three great, occasionally overlapping themes: aestheticism, vitality and humanity. Art critic Beate von Reifenscheid, in an essay about her, wrote that:

"Xiao Hui Wang's photography has been characterized by an especially penetrating quality of vision – one that tells us about people, about the contexts of their lives, about existence at the limits of psychological endurance, about loneliness and despair. However, she also traces the beauty of the human figure in her photos, the erotic tension between man and woman, the lives of women in seedy 'clubs', and even the eroticism of flowers, whose charged sexuality goes beyond that of Robert Mapplethorpe's black-and-white photographs".

Zhang Jianxing, Chairman of the Tianjin Photography Association, considers it immanently metaphorical, writing "Why are Xiao Hui Wang's many moments so powerful? The answer lies in the fact that what she captures with the lens of her camera is not only concrete objects, but also the spirit that is innate in those objects (...). The flowers in Xiao Hui Wang's photos are not flowers, water is not water, fog is not fog". Her art has also been considered intensely personal: Chinese art historian Gu Zheng called her self-portraits the "most brutally honest (...) in the history of photography". Art critic and professor Victoria Lu, describing her art as "the continuous record of her life", compares her to Frida Kahlo.
