Safety Instruction (Exhibition View)

The artist's original plan for this artwork is as follows:

The final video should consist of safety announcement videos collected from 10 to 20 airlines worldwide. The 10 to 20 videos should be played simultaneously on various channels and screens in the installation. A corresponding airline seat (a used seat from the related airline) will be placed in front of each video display.

However, the installation staged in the Biennale is different from the plan, because Zhang only received one video, donated by the China Southern Airline before the exhibition. Therefore, only one video is used, displayed on 10 screens.

Please refer to Artistic Working Manual of Zhang Peili, Lingnan Meishu Chubanshe, Guangzhou, 2008, p 282 for more information.
