A rolling stone inspires exhibition
The first group exhibition of Wind H Art Center's "wind Young Project", titled windYoung: Rolling Stone, draws inspiration from the Greek legend of Sisyphus. He was the king of Corinth who was condemned to roll a boulder, after he died, up a hill for eternity. The boulder would always roll back down before he could reach the top.
It teams up six artists whose output asks about whether there is a modern counterpart of Sisyphus, and the rolling stone endeavor is being reenacted in modern time. Their works show the daily routines and repeated behavior in people's lives. They engage the audience in the discussion about whether these actions mean something, or are simply absurdities, or maybe, they are rendered with meanings, even happiness in a fast-paced, ever-changing world.
Curated by Li Yanru, the exhibition is until Feb 23.
