Fuck off 2

de Ai Weiwei, Boyi Feng, Wilson, Mark

The show, which includes 37 contemporary Chinese artists and artist groups, contemplates and questions the current sociological, environmental, legal, and political climate in China today. The exhibition is a sequel to 'FUCK OFF', the ground-breaking show staged in Shanghai in 2000 by Ai Weiwei and Feng Boyi, which was quickly censored by the authorities as it was considered too sensitive with its radical content. Thirteen years later, the lack of artistic freedom in China and the repressive attitude toward individual actions by the government make 'FUCK OFF 2' especially relevant today. Exhibition: Groninger Museum, Groningen, the Netherlands (26.05. - 17.11.2013).
