His years working together with video artists resulted in shows at the Museum Boijmans van Beuningen in Rotterdam and Art Basel. A vital component of his work is his collaboration with independent Chinese filmmakers, which led to production of Buddha Mountain in 2010, the first arthouse box office success in China.[1] In addition, he has been holding guest lectures at Karlsruhe University of Arts and Design.
