Today I visited the museum 'Beelden aan Zee' in Scheveningen, together with Jora, her father, and Irian. The current exposition was titled Xianfeng! Contemporary sculpture art from China.
Xianfeng 先锋 means 'vanguard' or 'avant-garde'. Many objects were strange, to say the least, most sculptures were a strong political statement, and the art I liked the most were the ones which mixed traditional influences with modern techniques. I am quite conservative and I do not get excited over modern art. Yet this was a welcome peek in the world of the developing art scene from China.
Some pictures of the visit can be seen here. More about Chinese avant-garde here. See also Xu Bing's A Book from the Sky.
