Abstract
Multi-media artists Wang Xin and Chen Yongwei produce installations that have the potential to engender unsettling intimations of uncertainty and otherness—not simply the unfamiliar, the uncommon or the strange, but more precisely that which exceeds the limits of imagination and cognition.
Published in Walk or Fly: an Exhibition of the Work of Wang Xin and Chen Yongwei, exh cat. (Shanghai: Vanguard Gallery, 2008), no page numbers given.
