Biography

Born in 1957 in Xi’an, Gu Changwei began his career as a cinematographer, having graduated from the Beijing Film Academy as part of the “Fifth Generation” with fellow classmates Chen Kaige and Zhang Yimou. Gu collaborated with them in 1987 on films like King of the Children (Chen Kaige) and Red Sorghum (Zhang Yimou) and later, in 1993, Gu also photographed Chen’s masterpiece Farewell My Concubine. In addition to Chinese films, Gu has worked on American projects as well, including Robert Altman’s 1997 film The Gingerbread Man。

Beginning in 2005, Gu began his foray into film directing with his debut film Peacock. The film was well-received and won the Jury Grand Prix Silver Bear at the 2005 Berlin International Film Festival. And the Spring Comes, Gu’s second feature, was released in 2007.
