Land: Zhang Huan and Li Binyuan
Through September 3
Land: Zhang Huan and Li Binyuan brings together a selection of
performance works by two Chinese artists of dierent generations,
both of whom address the changing relationship between the body
and the land in contemporary China. Comprising works that mirror
shifts from collectivism to individualism, as well as tensions between
the natural, the cultivated, and the urbanized, the exhibition
juxtaposes videos and photographs of early performances by Zhang
Huan (Chinese, b. 1965) alongside documentation of more recent
performance works by Li Binyuan (Chinese, b. 1985) to reect on
evolving ideas of ownership, belonging, and alienation.
