Things from the gallery warehouse 2

 
The second installment in ShanghART Gallery's "Warehouse" series, "Things from the gallery warehouse 2" will exhibit several large-scaled installation works stored in the warehouse of ShanghART gallery. Featured artists include Hu Jieming, Shao Yi, Yang Zhenzhong, and a special opening day exhibition of Austrian artist Elisabeth Grubl’s latest work, about Chinese artist Zhou Tiehai.

Grubl’s work, an exploration of Zhou Tiehai's studio, will only be displayed for the opening night, 4pm-6pm December 19th.

"1999-2000 Lengend" by Hu Jieming is a collection of information about New Year’s Eve 1999, put onto transparent films. His work springs from the prevalent belief that the world shrinks as information reduces the distance between us.

For "Cable" (2008), Shao Yi uses 59 speakers collected from rural China to simultaneously reproduce private conversations, instead of propaganda.

Yang Zhenzhong's famous "Massage Chairs" (2003) emit electrical whirrings and rhythmical clickings that echo ominously in the gallery interiors they now occupy, evoking a response that is a far cry from any of the desired effects of massage.
