Chang Chao-Tang (b.1943-2024, Taiwan) was among the most celebrated and pioneering Taiwanese artists of the last century. His surrealist photographic sensibilities, cultivated since the early 1960s, had a strong influence on the look of media and visual culture in Taiwan. In addition to developing an avant-garde photography practice, Chang was a photojournalist, a cinematographer, and a filmmaker. From 1968 onward, he worked for the state-owned China Television Company and produced several documentaries exploring Taiwanese identity amidst the nativist movement of the 1970s and 1980s. He was also involved in Hong Kong cinema in the 1980s.
