From 65438 to 0993, he became interested in philosophy of language and cultural anthropology. After completing the series of oil paintings in Fujian, we conducted investigations in Tibet, Xinjiang, Shanxi and other places.
At the end of 1993, he began to use photography, images and devices during his stay in Santaishan, Hangzhou, and advocated using the latest achievements of language experiments to complete social criticism and self-criticism. Pay attention to the perspective, the control of media power, and the illusion of identity. The representative works of this period include "public life" installation, "tattoo" series photography, "toilet" video and so on.
From 65438 to 0994, he began to move to Beijing and went to Peking University Institute of Foreign Philosophers to attend philosophy and study analytical philosophy and phenomenology. Creative devices, photography, etc. Meanwhile. From 65438 to the mid-1990s, he participated in the "discussion of meaning" in Jiangsu Pictorial, and published a large number of articles criticizing the vulgar sociological tendency in China's art, which was famous for his writing style.
1996 planned the video art exhibition and became the promoter of new media art for a long time. The representative works of video recording and video recording devices are things 1997, and the present continuous time 1996. At the same time, Hangzhou's series of photographs, such as Tattoo, Rainbow and Good, are considered as representative works of the conceptual photography trend.
In the late 1990s, he turned to criticize the tendency of intellectual worship in conceptual art, and 1999 began to plan a series of post-perception exhibitions, advocating the site and comprehensiveness of the works, opposing over-interpretation, and began to move towards curatorial experiments. Personal creation is polarized. On the one hand, he turned to China's philosophy of life and sense of history, and resumed his interest in calligraphy. Representative works include Ten Tang Poems, Series of Explaining Words, Calendar 1998 Photography Series, etc. On the other hand, he became interested in the field investigation method of sociology, and did a lot of social collection photography and video creation around 200 1, such as Asian Time and Blackboard Series. And try to do large-scale live art with other artists in the post-perceptual group, such as 200 1 post-perceptual: carnival, trendy news, retribution and other activities.
In 2002, I participated in the planning of the large-scale activity "Long March-Walking Visual Exhibition", which I regarded as a large-scale social investigation and curatorial experiment. Personal creation seeks a seamless combination with daily life. He created the Long March-Left and Right and other works.
After September 2003, I taught in the Comprehensive Art Department of China Academy of Art, and began to use the concept of "holistic art" to integrate many aspects of creation, theory and practice in the previous new media period, "discussion of meaning issues" and "post-sensibility" and apply them to education. Ideologically, influenced by western philosophy of language and Buddhism, I partially transformed into Confucianism. The concept of "holistic art" holds that the solution of artistic problems must be completed at the same time as the solution of people's life problems, and art is understood as a tool for self and cultural evolution. Therefore, it is advocated that cultural research should be the basis of artistic work, and artistic work should be the basis for perfecting people and the world.
