Participation in a group exhibition at ZKM | Museum of Contemporary Art Karlsruhe (Germany): <\/strong><\/p>\n

The Global Contemporary. Art Worlds After 1989 (September 17, 2011 \u00e2\u20ac\u201c February 05, 2012) <\/strong><\/p>\n

We are participating in this group exhibition with the work: Wang Bin Torture in Commercial Quality, High Quality, and Museum Quality. A triptych commissioned to be painted in China based on an explicit photograph of the massacred torso of\u00c2\u00a0 Wang Bin. Wang Bin died as a result of torture inflicted on Falun Dafa members by the Chinese government. Although the original photograph is un-sharp, there is no doubt about what it is depicting. Using the Chinese painting companies‘ own product quality grade system, we commissioned the image to be painted in all three quality grades offered: Commercial Quality, High Quality and Museum Quality. What at the first glance appears as cynical artistic exploitation can also be seen as a shock of realities revealed through a conceptual artistic process. On one hand, most civilized countries condemn torture and censorship, on the other, they are eager to profit from Chinas‘ cheap production forces and ruthless commercialism. The marketing of art in ‚Commercial Quality, High Quality, and Museum Quality‘ is alien to general art practice as the artistic and monetary value of a painting is usually not relative to labor time or technical skill.<\/p>\n
