The exhibition presents Ouyang Chun’s most recent installations. “The objects and pieces of furniture, the artist used for the exhibition come from the old employees’ residence buildings of Xi’an University of Technology, where he lived with his parents in the 1980’s. He collected nearly 12 tons of living rubbish deserted by the olf residents and carried them back to Beijing before the whole compound was demolished. By assembling these founded object the artist revisits his childhood memories of the place. The installations presented in the exhibition continue some of the concepts the artist explored in Infinity Column and Detritus.”
