He was a recipient of the Young Scholar Grant, Tate Modern, 2015. His first monograph was nominated for the best art publication by the Award of Art China.

Xu Xiaowei is a highly successful professional photographer from China. Over the last ten years, he has worked with well-known fashion brands such as Bazaar, Elle, L’Officiel, Modern Weekly, Life Magazine, and Self. At the same time, he has pursued his artistic passion as an artist (he initially trained as an oil painter) and collaborated with some of the most prominent contemporary Chinese artists. He also created a series of photography-based artworks that stood out from his fashion photography. He won Gold in Press/Fashion at the Prix de la Photographie Paris and Award of Excellence at Communication Arts magazine in 2017.

Roger Ballen is one of the most influential and important photographic artists of the 21st century, and his photographs span over fifty years. His strange and extreme works confront the viewer and challenge them to come with him on a journey into their own minds as he explores the deeper recesses of his own. He has published over twenty-five books internationally and his works are in more that fifty of the most important international museum collections.
