Lee Mingwei
Shu-Min Lin trades homeboy quips with sleep-with-strangers performance artist and sculptor Lee Mingwei. Mingwei, the force behind POP! The First Human Male Pregnancy, created a special "seer" booth for this year's Whitney Biennial. He often makes work that involves the participation of strangers and has presented it in solo shows at the Whitney and at the Museum of Modern Art, where his project The Tourist was on exhibition in 2003.
