A photo of Warhol on the Great Wall hung beside his imaginative description of the world wonder:" It doesn't look like a wall, it looks like a rollercoaster without roller."
Besides photos and videos recording foreign artists visiting China, other works by young Chinese artists focus on very personal experiences and offer visitors vicarious visual journeys.
The animated film New Shan Hai Jing transports you to a distorted world, or hell, one that some more sensitive visitors might find disturbing. Black ravens, large spiders and animal-shaped cars all materialize in a gray and dark place with an ominously cloudy sky.
Finishing off the exhibition is an installation mimicking a classroom. The artist believes our memories about classrooms from our childhood are an irreplaceable form of travel in our lives.
