FROM CHINA WITH LOVE
August 3 - 18
Feng Fangyu, Qiu Minye, Wang Tong, Chen Xiaowei
and Xu Zhe form the young generation of Chinese photographer. Dare to view
their own country face to face, they witness the current China that is
modern and dynamic. Between ancestral traditions and modernity, they
question the current contemporary society as much as their own
country’s history.
Memory, patriotism, globalization
influence, and exploration of marginality are all newly emerged issues in
their works. Between the fulfill and broken dreams, these five
photographers with a sense of humor, mix the wonderfulness of reality with
a taste of staggered offset. From the re-edited photography of Mao by Wang
Tong to stunning dreamy images of Xu Zhe, From China with Love invites you
to discover the richness of this new generation.
For the first time
in Belgium, the skill of these five Chinese photographers to reinvent China
through photograph that gives us a juicy bit of today’s
China.
