We’re so looking forward to the Armory Show this year, March 6-9, 2014! Lehmann Maupin is planning to unveil Liu Wei‘s Library II-II, 2013, the fantastic piece above which consists of books, wood, iron and hardware in three sculptures in its U.S. debut.
Comprised of massive piles of books sourced from secondhand markets in Beijing, their paper carved into forms that resemble eroded cityscapes, Library II-II evokes a sprawling metropolis in a state of flux with its constant state of development and demolition rendering the city and and its characteristic landmarks unrecognizable.

Enjoy!!
