Enjoy it? - Zhou Yilun's Solo Exhibition

Platform China Contemporary Art Institute is pleased to present Enjoy It? - Zhou Yi Lun’s first solo show at Platfform China after Self-experience: Young Artists Group Show, which he participate in 2007.

As we know, the great development of science has brought the society’s tremendous prosperity. Since the period of the human’s existence, the primordial desire has been infinitely magnified, bringing about more and more desire of control, to makes the human longing for placing themselves above everything. However, animals are horribly pure, they think life is wonderful if just provided by food and sex, but humans are never satisfied with these desire.

The works will be presented are what continues the previous series. In his own words, “what I want to express is a provocation to the ethics, just so simple. Although directly in words, isn’t it you spectators want?”

We believe the indefinable power of this rebel boy, it is the main motivation of releasing his solo exhibition by the end of this year.

Qing Jin - Peter Vink specially conceived for Platform China Contemporary Art Institute space A

Peter Vink (1974) is a Dutch visual artist based in Amsterdam, and now spending 6 months in Beijing as an artist in residence at Platform China Art Institute. The core of his artistic research lies in investigating and challenging the common notion of space as well as the artistic potential it releases when the artist uses it as a setting of his site specific works. The manner in which space is activated by the artistic gesture, the redefinition of its identity, its shift from an ordinary to a fictionalized entity are all issues on the artistic agenda of Vink, an artist who allows no “ready-made” solutions but always engages in analyzing the specificity of every kind of space.

This artistic intervention specially conceived for Platform China Contemporary Art Institute space A is an example of the artist’s ability to redesign and at some extent direct space. As in the other works by Vink, also in this case the physical space far from being a passive backdrop is transformed into the site where the real action takes place; it plays the leading role in the piece and thus transcends its triviality.
