Gu Dexin (born 1962, Beijing) is a Chinese contemporary artist. He first came to international attention in the late 1980s with his colorful portraits of alien beings and provocative experiments in altering and reshaping plastics and other materials. His work has been featured international exhibitions such as Between Past and Future: New Photography and Video from China, organised by the David and Alfred Smart Museum of Art and the International Center of Photography, New York, in 2005. He is perhaps best known for his works using raw meat and fruits and vegetables, in which decay is a central feature.
