A friend of mine is having her testbed painting outside a building of slade. (i hope i didn’t interpret the venue wrongly)

I wish i know how to sketch; i wish i know how to draw; i wish i know how to paint.

Someone please teach me all these!

Maybe I should really start learning it in the 2nd half of 2010

The latest exhibition at Chambers Fine Art (Beijing) is really nice

With my image, you can only see less than half of the exhibition, as you will always need to walk around the space, and feel the transformation of painting even they do not have any interactivity.

nicely done!

Recently, there is a Zhang Huan exhibition at Pace Beijing (actually is opened while i am in london, so bad that i am not at the opening of pace again!)

Basically, there are 2 set of his works, one is the budda head by skins, while the other one is ashes painting of tigers.

Works are all very impressive while you see the original work, also, it makes me think if chinese contemporary art is pursuing to a more abstract way; instead of continue of metaphor, symbols or concepts.

it’s really great been exhibiting in Tate Modern, though there is quite a lot of unexpected happen during the setup; like wrong bricks, wrong cable..

still, it’s very important experience.
