Art from China
Visit the LACMA exhibition the Allure of Matter: Material Art from China again and evaluate the presence of the modular system in one of the installtions by a contemporary artist from China.
Hint: In order to analyze the work, you may need to use the internet to read a bit about the artist, including the artist’s background, view other projects, and understand preliminarily the context of the artist’s work and exhibition history. Where has the artist shown? What was the maker’s training? Where does the artist currently reside? How old is the artist? After spending some time reading about the artist, you may flip through the catalog at LACMA.
Guidelines: You must include how your chosen installation or installation works from the LACMA exhibition adhere to the modular system. You must write and respond to these questions: What is the Element? What is the Module? What is the Unit? What is the Series? Where is the Mass? In addition, you must show some comparison or consideration with a historical material in your 4-5 page paper by referring to one article or one chapter you have read and mentioning one example from that reading (still uploaded on DotED). DO NOT GO OVER THE PAGE LIMIT.
Ps: Just do the pieces done by Ai Weiwei. Just his work.
