| Han Bing | |
)
|
Han Bing (1974- ) grew up in an impoverished village in rural China. After studying oil painting in college, he commenced advanced studies at the Chinese Central Academy of Art. Moving to Beijing, he witnessed the harsh contrast between the urbanized "Chinese dream" propelling the nation's struggle to become "modern," and the cruel realities of those left behind, or trodden underfoot in this stampede. As a clarion voice from the "new contemporary art of the everyday" in the "globalized, post-colonial context," Han Bing expresses the struggles and desires in the "theater of Chinese modernization." His works use photography, video and multimedia performance installation to invert quotidian practice, making us rethink the order of things and the human condition. Han Bing's art manifests a kind of amor mundi—love of the world—investing ordinary objects from everyday life with a subtle sense of the sacred. Prominent contemporary art exhibitions across Europe, Asia and the US have featured his work. |
| 关于此艺术家 | |
Han Bing's work is intimately connected to the vicissitudes of the everyday, and deeply invested in the creation of discursive space for both the examination and the reimagination of who we are and what we could be. Using conceptual and performance photography, as well as video and performance installation, Han Bing creates "spaces of appearance" in which people, often those who have been marginalized in some way, represent themselves as sentient subjects facing uncertain futures in modernizing China. Han Bing, who grew up in a poor rural village, identifies with his subjects, inviting them to participate in performance art, conceptual photography and video art that voices the commonality of their quotidian concerns, constituting an "imagined community" of those struggling, dispossessed, and yet still dreaming of a better life. |

Urban Amber, No. 1
2005 |
)
|
| The specter of glamorous high-rises, those icons of middle-class China's dreams of home and a better life, appear again in Han Bing's latest conceptual photography series, Urban Amber(2005). Juxtaposed to the nearby, ramshackle, temporary dwellings of the urban poor, these fantasy high-rises appear resplendent and dream-like until you realize that their inverted images are reflected in Beijing's ubiquitous, industrial-waste and garbage-infested "stinky rivers." Like amber, these rivers capture the sediment of the times, showing us through a mirror darkly, the underbelly of China's fantasy of modernity. |

Love in the Age of Big Construction II
2006 |
)
|
| LOVE IN THE AGE OF BIG CONSTRUCTION, II, Han Bing's multimedia performance installation, "Love in the Age of Big Construction II," opened the China-Chai-Na (Demolish There) Exhibition, located in the ruins of an old factory at the 2006 Dashanzi International Art Festival, at 798 Art Factory in Beijing. For three hours, the mostly nude artist used gender-blurring wiles to seduce and subdue the enormous steel clawed arm of a backhoe--a quintessential machine of destruction and construction, typically used in sites of demolition and building across China. On a bed of bricks and white cotton, fluffy like cumulous clouds, beneath a diaphanous white canopy that hinted of wedding night rituals, and behind a red neon rope and construction cones, for three straight hours Han Bing caressed, kissed, snuggled and stroked the hulking metal machine. His video "Age of Big Construction," projected ghostly images of brutal demolition, the frail hopes of construction, the elan of laboring people, and the uneuphemized realities of life in a zone of ongoing destruction and construction, onto his body and against the curtain behind him to the rhythm of industrial noise and the warnings of nature pushed to its limits. In a move that repudiates the logic of "fight fire with fire," or as it's said in Chinese, "use poison to fight poison," the artist embraced a strategy reminiscent of pacifist civil disobedience, employing a dialectic of antinomies to create a space for overcoming. The softness of the bed of cotton is used to overcome the hardness of the machine, weightless clouds to hold up tons of steel, sensuality to overcome the numbed philistine quality of the contemporary age, Eros to tame the death drive, seduction to overcome violation, feminine generativity to overcome masculine destructivity." --Maya Kovskaya, Art Critic and Independent Curator based in Beijing

Walking the Cabbage (composite 2)
2007 (composite of images from |
','Image'))
|
|
Walking the Cabbage (2000-present) is an ongoing performance art piece that has taken Han Bing across China--from his tiny home village to Tiananmen Square, from the colorful minority village of Dali in the southwest mountains to the tranquil water towns of Suzhou, from the Westernized Bund in Shanghai to the Great Wall and beyond--the USA, Japan and Europe. By inverting quotidian practice, Han Bing foregrounds the lowly cabbage--the Chinese comfort food and bottom line staple of the poor--as a laden signifier of the nature of the times in "modernizing" China. For the nouveau riche, the humble cabbage as a sign of basic material stability (once horded by urban residents en mass to get them through the winter) has been replaced by the pampered pedigreed pet. What do the objects we attach to ourselves say about how we define our identies and values in this rapidly changing world? How do our mundane everyday practices and routines serve to constitute our shared sense of the normal? Han Bing poses these question with his public performances of Walking the Cabbage, which are conducted as everyday practice across a diverse array of social spaces and in public places everywhere, inciting the emergences of the "Cabbage-Walking Tribe" who question the authority of the norm and bring our attention back to the way the world is shaped by our everyday actions. |
