This bilingual collection examines Zhang Peili’s movement from painting to video and his place in the development of contemporary Chinese art. Essays and personal recollections connect particular works with artistic friendships, exhibitions and the changing conditions in which new media practices emerged.
Contributors discuss the 1985 New Space exhibition, Flying Machine, Zhang’s experiments with video and curatorial exchanges between China and Australia. An annotated list of exhibited works accompanies the essays, along with photographs, reproductions, an artist biography and contributor information. English and Chinese texts appear together in the original volume, which preserves the visual material and its credits.
