他的艺术实践受到汉斯·哈克(Hans Haacke)和安德里亚·弗雷泽(Andrea Fraser)等在机构批评(Institutional Critique)领域起到推动性作用的艺术家的影响。他的装置作品经常以无厘头的幽默以及对现实事物出其不意的戏仿,向文化机构在生产当代文化与定义社会审美方面的作用发出质疑。除了个人艺术实践外,李昕頔还以雇员的身份参与着公共艺术机构的日常运行。其职业经历促进了他对艺术机构运转方式的理解,启发了他对相关制度体系内所谓的“惯例”进行自省式的反思。
Born in Beijing in 1996, currently lives and works in Beijing. Li holds a BFA in Sculpture from The School of the Art Institute of Chicago.
Following the paths of pivotal artists who work in the realm of Institutional Critique, such as Hans Haacke and Andrea Fraser, Xindi Li’s installation works pose questions and critically comments on the nature of art institutions and their role in producing culture and defining aesthetics in contemporary society with unexpected parody and non-sequitur humor. Aside from his individual art practice, Li has also worked in private and public art museums professionally; these professional experiences have significantly contributed to his understanding of the functioning of art institutions and initiated his constant introspective examining of the norms within the institutional system.
