MoMA PS1 presents the first museum solo show in the United States of Beijing-based artist Cao Fei
04.2016-08.2016
Image still from Haze and Fog (2013)MoMA PS1 presents the first museum solo show in the United States of Beijing-based artist Cao Fei. One of the most innovative young artists to have emerged from China, Cao Fei creates multimedia projects that explores the reality of the young Chinese generation and their strategies for overcoming and escaping the challenging routine in rapidly changing society. Mixing social commentary, pop aesthetics, references to Surrealism, and documentary conventions in her films and installations, the artist reflects on the rapid and chaotic changes occurring in Chinese society.
Organized by Klaus Biesenbach, Director, MoMA PS1, and Chief Curator at Large, The Museum of Modern Art, with Jocelyn Miller, Curatorial Associate, MoMA PS1.

Cao Fei, Coming Soon (2015)more info:Coming Soon (2015) is the latest work by Cao Fei.
Two swings fall from the ceiling and twosets of drums are fixed on the sidewalls in 90 degrees. Performers swing backand forth to the closest distance of the wall, trying to strike the instrumentswith their furthest body parts.
There are times she kicked the snare drum,and times she touched the crash cymbal with her toe. Wavering, playing out dulland crystal clear sound, they might hit nothing or they might have spontaneous,broken noise aroused continuously between them. It could be monotonous or aresonance. The room turns into solitude when they are exhausted. The nextmoment she rushes in to break the silence.
