China in Town
Liu Jianhua: “Yiwu Survey”, 2006
There is a very interesting exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art in Vienna. It is called "China - Facing Reality".
As china being a topic of many discussions around world economy, the name leaves various interpretations open. Is it the artists that more and more face reality since the country has open upt o the world? Or is it China as a country that has to face all the problems that go with such a rapid development from a more or less third world country to an industrial nation?
Anyway, the exhibition is a must see when you are near Vienna.

Momentan findet im Museum für Moderne Kunst in Wien eine sehr interessante Ausstellung statt. Sie heißt "China - Facing Reality".
Da China momentan wohl DAS Thema in allen Diskussionen rund um die Weltwirtschaft ist, lässt dieser Name mehrere Interpretationen offen. Sehen hier nun die Künstler der Realität ins Auge sehen nach dem sich das Land der Welt geöffnet hat? Oder ist es China als Land welches nun all den Problemen ins Auge sehen muss, die mit so einer rasenden Entwicklung vom mehr oder weniger Dritte Welt Land zu einer Industrienation einhergehen?
Wie auch immer, die Ausstellung ist ein Muß, wenn man in der Nähe von Wien ist!
