Made In China: The ‘Whereabouts’ Of Moving Image Production In Asia

Barbara London and Marko Daniel take a look at how the work of the youngest generation of media artists in China differs from that of their elders. The more emerging grew up with the Internet and access to computers and information, whereas the more senior were shaped by the Cultural Revolution and made do with limited means. As examples, the speakers will consider the ideas and motives behind five artists’ productions: Zhang Peili, Song Dong, Xu Zhen, Cao Fei, and Lu Yang.
