    Blood, Sweat and Tears. The Martyred Body in Chinese Performance Art Tania Becker When we speak of offending images in the context of contemporary Chinese art, some of us may remember articles that were published in , voices of outrage in reaction to Zhu Yu’s performance Eating People: Is it art when a man eats a dead baby? london — My God, what kind of society do we live in? A Chinese man eats a dead baby on TV and actually claims it’s art! The announcement alone unleashed one of Great Britain’s hottest debates on the freedom of the media, the press, and art: the British tv Channel wanted to broad- cast the documentary Beijing Swings, which includes photographs of Chinese artist Zhu Yu apparently eating a dead baby. According to Zhu, the corpse is from a miscarriage. In one of the photographs, he’s washing the body in a sink. Another photo shows him biting into a dismembered body part. Zhu has said that the pictures were taken during a perfor- mance titled »Eating Humans« in his house in Beijing. Yesterday, Zhu Yu claimed that as an artist, it’s his job to initiate debates over morality and art. His work involves exploring whether boundaries still exist. It does not, however, seem to bother anyone when this »artist« transgress- es these boundaries. Not even the guardians of the law — because de- spite the fact that artists using human body parts for their art can be sentenced to ten years in prison, nothing happened [...].

  • Garden and Park Structures Listing Selection Guide Summary
    Garden and Park Structures Listing Selection Guide Summary Historic England’s twenty listing selection guides help to define which historic buildings are likely to meet the relevant tests for national designation and be included on the National Heritage List for England. Listing has been in place since 1947 and operates under the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990. If a building is felt to meet the necessary standards, it is added to the List. This decision is taken by the Government’s Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS). These selection guides were originally produced by English Heritage in 2011: slightly revised versions are now being published by its successor body, Historic England. The DCMS‘ Principles of Selection for Listing Buildings set out the over-arching criteria of special architectural or historic interest required for listing and the guides provide more detail of relevant considerations for determining such interest for particular building types. See https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/principles-of- selection-for-listing-buildings. Each guide falls into two halves. The first defines the types of structures included in it, before going on to give a brisk overview of their characteristics and how these developed through time, with notice of the main architects and representative examples of buildings. The second half of the guide sets out the particular tests in terms of its architectural or historic interest a building has to meet if it is to be listed. A select bibliography gives suggestions for further reading. This guide looks at buildings and other structures found in gardens, parks and indeed designed landscapes of all types from the Middle Ages to the twentieth century.

  • Zhang Peili: Negotiating a Space for Contemporary Art in China with Video
    30 x 30 (Detail), single-channel video, CRT monitor, 36:49mins, 1988. 《30 x 30》 (细节),单频录像,阴极射线管显示器,36分49秒,1988年。 Zhang Peili: Negotiating a space for contemporary art in China with video John Clark The context for contemporary art The arrival of video art in China cannot be seen in a vacuum. The ground was prepared by changes in exhibition organisation; new generations of post–Cultural Revolution artists, including Zhang Peili; general shifts in art education; and the opening of the economy (and, with that, changes in the organs of cultural control, or at least changes in their manner of operation). Much of the background is covered in an increasingly voluminous literature on Chinese contemporary art in the 1980s and 1990s, which is often articulated around the caesura of the ‘Beijing Incident’ in June 1989, preceded as it was by the China/Avant-Garde exhibition in February 1989.1 In a sense, the art world opened up and established its autonomy during 1985–89, but was then held back sharply in the two years after the ‘Incident’.2 It reopened irreversibly, it appears, after the visits of Deng Xiaoping to Shenzhen in 1992, and his associated speeches.3 95 ZHANG PEILI: FROM PAINTING TO VIDEO The residues of 1989 are many. Principally there was and is an official antipathy for disturbing events or artworks that are socially unexpected, uncontrolled or deliberately shocking. Of course, current taste defines ‘shock’, but the state applies a shifting criterion of public acceptability, some of whose parameters it changes disingenuously or without notice. Radical art or experimental practice outside the academy no longer has any direct connection with formalist avant- gardism, but certainly during the 1990s a socially disturbing quality was attributed to performance art and, to a lesser degree, to installation art.

  • A SMALL MAP PIECE of PERFORMANCE ART in CHINA a Study Room Guide by Adele Tan June 2008
    A SMALL MAP PIECE OF PERFORMANCE ART IN CHINA A study room guide by Adele Tan June 2008 Let me begin with a fruit. The fruit in this instance is Grapefruit, Yoko Ono´s visionary 1964 book of art- making instructions for everyone. The Chinese word for fruit is guo (果)and like the English word it too means the result or reward of work or activity such as in the word jie guo ( 结果 ). So how does one begin to look at performance art in China in the selection of material available in the Live Art Development Agency library and make it a productive (fruitful) endeavour without taking the exploratory fun out of it? The history of performance art in China is still in the making and so we might do well not to make it too conclusive.
