Patty Chang Biography

Patty Chang is one of the most popular and richest Film Director who was born on February 3, 1972 in San Francisco, United States. Patty Chang (born February 3,1972 in San Leandro, CA) is an American performance artist and film director living and working in Los Angeles, CA. Chang was originally trained as a painter and received her Bachelor of Arts at the University of California, San Diego. It wasn’t until she moved to New York that she became involved with the performance art scene. She currently resides and works out of Brooklyn, New York City.

Her performative works deal with themes of gender, language and empathy, and she was described as “one of our most consistently exciting young artists” by The New York Times in 2005. Originally trained as a painter, she is primarily known for her short films, videos and performance art. Chang has participated in film as body dubbing which allows studios to remake films with more international casts. She often plays a central role in her own work, which is often seen as testing the acceptable boundaries of taste and endurance. Some of her work contains scatological elements, while others critique perceptions of female sexual roles. She often denounces the problems that she observes in contemporary society by staging her own body in intensely difficult situations, documenting her actions through video and photography. She began to take a more “behind the scenes” role and became “perhaps the least visible she has ever been in her own work” in her 2005 exhibition Shangri-La based on a fictional location in the 1933 novel Lost Horizon by James Hilton. Her recent work, especially “Invocation for The Wandering Lake” (2015–16), draws connections between landscape and the body. Many aspects of Chang’s work connect back to her Asian culture such as her interest in Shangri-La as well as her criticism of Asian female stereotypes in her work Contortion (2000).
