About the Artist
Yang Bao is an installation artist, pianist, and composer based in New York. Through sound sculpture, live performance, composition, video and painting, he creates experimental and ever-evolving visual soundscapes. Best known for his concept of "Infinity Music," he constructs large-scale metal sound sculptures where his dedicated compositions multiply and evolve based on time and chance, transforming landscapes and architectures into monumental super-instruments. With his multimedia and interdisciplinary creativity, he visualizes sound into sculptures, films and paintings, creating an experiential synthesis of the arts. His large-scale outdoor sound sculpture complex "HYPERSPACE" is permanently collected and exhibited at The Donum Estate, one of the world’s largest sculpture collections for contemporary art. His major solo shows include MADLANDS (Long Museum, Shanghai West Bund, 2024), Hear A Century Ahead (Former British Consulate, Shanghai, 2021), Late Night Savage (Cc Foundation, Shanghai, 2021). Yang Bao has been awarded the Maria Manetti Shrem Composer Prize, Forbes China's "Most Influential Young Artists" and Robb Report's "Young Artist of the Year." His artworks have been collected by prestigious institutions, such as Long Museum, and commissioned by international brands, such as Christian Dior and Louis XIII. As a classical pianist graduated from The Juilliard School and New England Conservatory of Music, he recently performed Rachmaninoff's "Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini" with the China Philharmonic Orchestra at the National Centre for the Performing Arts, and debuted his major symphonic and piano composition "First Day on Mars" in California.
