Museum Het Domein presents Chinergie - China Summer Show, on view through September 2, 2007. It is about 40ºC or hotter in Guangzhou in August. Museum Het Domein therefore offers 'cool' refuge to the Chinese with Chinergie – China Summer Show. This series of exhibitions, events, and presentations came into existence through the synergy of Vitamin Creative Space and Museum Het Domein and it will be the cause of quite some extra heat! The artists Ni Haifeng and Wang Jianwei cooperate with Art historian Kitty Zijlmans (University of Leiden) for the project 'Forms of Exchange'. 'Forms of Exchange' explores the question of ‘exchange’ on an artistic and a scientific level. What do you give away and what do you get in return? The installations 'Gift' of Ni & Zijlmans as well as Wang’s 'Input/Output' therefore involve direct social exchange with the public, and rule is, that first comes first…. The Chinese artist Liang Shuo (Tianjin, 1976) exhibited little frivolous ceramic figurines during the Guestroom#3 in January 2006. Equally naughty, but much more moderate, is the video piece ‘Letter to my wife and letter to my lover’ (2005) that he donated to the Museum Het Domein. In the context of Chinergie – The China Summer show, the piece is now on display in Sittard for the first time, and will be illustrated by a small publication. In the T-zone designer Paul van der Veer shows a preview of photo’s from his book Daxi, in which he portrays Chinese street opera. Van der Veer worked in Singapore for eleven years en is now preparing the book.
