Catalogue of exhibition featuring photographs from Zhu Ming's performances from 1993-2006. Zhu is one the most important performance artists of the avant-garde. From his first appearance in the seminal group work by Beijing East Village artists, To Add a Meter to an Anonymous Mountain, Zhu Ming has created performance works that leave an indelible impression upon the viewer and have left a deep impression upon the landscape of Chinese contemporary art. Whether seen in the flesh or in photographs, Zhu Ming’s performances, through his raw display of his naked body, are controversial works that call attention to the vulnerability and aloneness of all humankind. During the first decade of his performances, his works were banned from public display in Mainland China because it was believed that Zhu Ming's works were polluting to the general public. As a result, the majority of his performances from the Bubble and Luminescent Man series were performed abroad. Artist biography is provided in the present catalogue.
