Being part of the OCAT Shanghai annual young artists project, this exhibition will also be the last exhibition of the year and is organized by Mr. Colin Siyuan Chinnery, a curator long devoted to the research of contemporary Chinese art. The eight participating artists are Chen Zhe, Hu Xiangqian, Li Liao, Lin Ke, Lu Pingyuan, Nabuqi, Shen Xin and Yu Ji who work in video, photography, sculpture and performance.

Do Not Open It

Installation

224x185.5cm

2015


Do Not Open It series is a collection of doors gathered by Lu Pingyuan from different houses and each door has an unspeakable secret. Once installed onto the wall, the door would be forbidden to ever open again. Lu has installed these doors all over the world, literally as the title goes, hoping that those doors will not be opened again. This is a stern piece of advice from Lu, as well as some similar plot in many fairytales: there is a door that is advised not to open. Lu Pingyuan hopes that these doors appear in various exhibitions and fields, and along with the warning “Do Not Open It”, thereafter, they will automatically create a lot of stories themselves years later.

The stories are usually displayed in the simplest way, sometimes in ways according to the specific locations of the contexts. The stories and articles related to them jointly construct a bizarre but rich world of imagination.

Masterpiece In The Water describes a mystical artwork. The uniqueness of it is that you have to put your head into an ordinary basin to see the artwork. Collectors with great curiosity pouring in decided to witness this magic themselves......
