Shanghai Biennial


How did I miss this? I have a few more weeks to check it out as the show ends November 5. Biennials have disappointed me greatly in recent years, showcasing trendy art rather than breakthrough art. Then again, that will bring us back to the never ending question that's racked so much neural space of recent art historians: What is Art? Update to follow.

But there's always hope!
Hope that there will be breakthrough artists at the biennial!
i remember at this gallery in berlin, there was this OUTRAGEOUS artist (think rituals, cows being dissected, people in pools of blood).
it was the very first time i was ever appalled by art.
the lesson learned?
: there's beauty in art that doesn't have statements, too.
