Linjie Deng (born 1992 in Linfen, China) is a Chinese-American multi-media and contemporary artist. [2]
Deng was born in 1992, in Linfen City, Shanxi Province, China. [1] He received a bachelor of fine arts degree from Beijing City University in 2015. [3]
Deng began painting at age six, but he gained recognition in 2015 when an art lover collected his Chinese seal and calligraphy artworks for $80,000. In the same year, he moved to New York, where he completed his master of fine arts degree from the School of Visual Arts in 2017. [3]
In 2019, Deng designed posters for the UN Global Callout to Creatives and designed paintings with slogans including Wash Your Hands, Stay Home, Save Lives. [3] He offered his pandemic-influenced art on the Artavita website, with all sales donated to The New York-Presbyterian Hospital’s healthcare workers. [3] In the same year, Deng created the Yin-Yang series, a selection of contemporary calligraphy works consisting of mutually opposing and coexisting ideas: freedom and hope, hard work and luck, proud and humble. Libbie Mugrabi collected his Yin-Yang Series calligraphy in Art Basel Miami Beach. [4] [5]
In 2021, Deng showcased his works after experiencing Asian hate crime on the subway. That led him to SCOPE Art Fair, where he exhibited three yellow works, with one work spotlighting Stop Asian Hate; Start American Love. [6] [7] [8] In addition, Deng created Make America United Again, a series directed at the Asian-American community. [9] [10] He has also designed NFTs, and his NFT work was featured at the Portion Street X Pop Art Week. [11]
In 2020, Deng was invited to his solo exhibition at Chameleon 2020. In the same year, he was a featured international level artist at the Hamptons Virtual Art Fair (HVAF). [1] Deng's work has also been shown in China, Carlton Fine Art Gallery New York, The Hamptons Fine Art Fair, Art Basel Miami Beach, Dream Tattoo calligraphy public show, Stop Asian Hate Campaign, The United Nations, and New York Con Artist Collection.
