China in four seasons: Zhang Peili addresses the work of an artist working at the threshold of experimental practice in media arts in China since the 1980s. Averting the tendency towards a singular meaning or interpretation being derived from his works, Zhang Peili’s video practice suggests political and social contexts while adopting associations with memory, personal experience and states of mind. Impermanence, discontinuity, uncertainty and unexpected forces inform the artist’s ongoing investigations.
This is the third project in the Govett-Brewster’s year long series of solo exhibitions exploring the breadth, power and specificity of art from the world’s most populous country. The other artists involved are Jin Jiangbo, Guo Fengyi and Song Dong and Yin Xiuzhen.
