Video Work by Gao Shiqiang and Chen Qiulin January 1, 2010

This exhibition pairs video work by contemporary Chinese artists Gao Shiqiang and Chen Qiulin, whose artistic visions capture the collision of tradition and modernity in China in distinct ways. Gao Shiqiang's epic Butterfly Lovers (2006) is a tragic love story that serves as an allegory for the new millennium, and Chen Qiulin's Colour Line (2006) is a sublime meditation on rapid urbanization and development in contemporary China.
