Artist's solo exhibition dwells on historic depth

Yang Luzi, 31, majored in philosophy during her undergraduate study at Harvard University before receiving a master's degree in the art of cinematic creation from the California Institute of the Arts.

Yang, born in Hangzhou of Zhejiang province, has lived and worked in the United States and Germany, making videos and writing sci-fi stories, and she holds experimental courses and workshops at colleges.

Because of her cross-disciplinary academic background and travel experience, Yang's video works are interwoven with different historic dimensions. Yang's eponymous exhibition, set to open at Beijing's Ullens Center for Contemporary Art on June 9, will show movies shot on 16 mm film.
