The Essential Works of Yin Xiuzhen

ArtAsiaPacific published a profile of Chinese artist Yin Xiuzhen, born in 1963 in Beijing, highlighting her career as a pivotal figure in Chinese contemporary art since the 1990s. The article revisits milestone works following the closing of her solo exhibition "Yin Xiuzhen: Heart to Heart" at London's Hayward Gallery, including early pieces like *Dress Box* (1995) and *Washing River* (1995). Yin emerged alongside the second wave of Chinese contemporary artists, including Yu Hong, Song Yonghong, Wang Jinsong, and her husband Song Dong, and was an early practitioner of what art historian Gao Minglu termed "Apartment Art." Her practice uses discarded clothing, household ephemera, and industrial materials to address urbanization, globalization, environmental crisis, and collective memory.
