PORTIKUS (Frankfurt)
Chinese artist Chu Yun’s practice focuses mainly on installation-based work that references his own experiences, with the production process itself forming part of the artwork. For this exhibition, the artist who in a conversation with Vitamin Creative Space director Hu Fang said ‘we are … unconsciously changed by things we cannot easily observe’, has filled the gallery space with a flowerbed reminiscent of a Baroque-style garden. A reference also to urban flowerbeds of this type in China, however when viewed from the gallery’s upper-floor the words ‘Make a Great Work’ become discernable. The profusion of tightly planted flowers arranged side-by-side speaks of the experience of society as a mass of individuals.
