I dig the enchanted wall paintings the most, they seem foggy, mysterious, the more you look, imagine, the more you may see.
A friend who just got back from Asia was talking to me about how wierd it was to have both the subdued, kind of epic aesthetic of traditional (in her case Japanese) images and objects, contrasted with the explosion of acidic pop culture media. I kind of see that in this exhibition, too.
hey Billy, we are going to have an exhibition of Chinese photography here in Minnesota next year. some of the artists are Liu Xiaodi, Jiang Jian, Zhang Xinmin, Luo Yongjin, Zhou Hai, and Lu Yuanmin- documenting contemporary life and the rapid changing, urbanization in China. Are these artists famous at all? Have you heard of them?
