Catalogue of joint exhibition at Chambers Fine Art in 2002. According to curator Feng Boyi, cement symbolizes the ideals of modern society. In the past twenty years of the China open-door policy, the use of cement in architecture has physically revealed transformations in the process of modernization and urbanization. Showing works of art in various media, the exhibition uses both the term and the concept of cement to represent urban transformations and conflicts in contemporary China. It explores the relationship between human beings and history, nature and current society. Artist biographies are included in the catalogue.

本圖錄展示的是前波畫廊2002年一場聯展的作品。誠如馮博一所述:「『混凝土』已成為我們這個時代現代化理想的象徵,尤其在中國改革開放的20年間裏,更顯示了中國現代化過程的物理性變化。是次展覽即試圖借用混凝土的概念,以多媒介的表達方式從城市的變遷、現代文明的衝突中探討人與歷史、人與自然和人與當代文化生態環境的關係。」本圖錄載有參展藝術家的簡歷。
