Geng Jianyi, born in Zhengzhou, Henan Province in 1962, is one of the early pioneer artists in China. In 1985, he graduated from the Department of art, Zhejiang Academy of fine arts, Hangzhou, majoring in oil painting (now China Academy of Fine Arts). As an important contemporary Chinese artist, he participated in many important international contemporary art exhibitions, and is one of the important representatives of Chinese modern and contemporary art.

On December 5, 2017, Geng Jianyi, a contemporary Chinese artist, died of illness at the age of 55.

Geng Jianyi is one of many pioneering artists who have emerged since the mid-1980s. Moreover, he continued this exploration and explored how to express his experience. He took this as the purpose of his works and the way of his works. His works have value and impact beyond themselves. The 8th CCAA outstanding achievement award was awarded to artist Geng Jianyi.

In the 1980s, he and other Hangzhou artists, such as Zhang Peili and Wang Qiang, created many experimental works of satire, world playing and political implication.

His famous big smile "second state" is one of the best works of that era. After entering the nineties, Geng Jianyi seems to be gradually forgotten. In recent years, through his photography, installation and oil painting works, he constantly put forward his own thoughts and views on the current social phenomena and problems.
