Mind • Beating
55th International Art Exhibition – La Biennale di Venezia
Collateral Events
Spazio Thetis, Arsenale Novissimo
Castello, Venice Italy
“Mind” means thinking and consciousness in the psychological sense, and is the same as brains, which is a huge central hub for receiving and classifying information. The purpose of the exhibition is to regard the mind as a container, and extend to thinking system, and explore the relationship between visual creation and multi-dimensional world through “heart”, the common information reception organ of human kinds and its beating frequency. Though the words such as “globalization” and “trans-boundary” etc. have been repeatedly used, we shall still analyze the latest works and the thoughts of the creators from similar perspectives before we find more suitable words.

The purpose of the exhibition "mind·beating" is to consider the mind as a container and explore the relationship between visual creation and multi-dimensional world through "heart", the common information reception organ of human kinds and its beating frequency.
One of the exploration field of 10 out of the 16 Chinese creators invited will be on the social reality of China, intended to analyze multiple contradictions and problems due rapid changes of Chinese society (globalization and trans-boundary for example), and reflect the current "feature landscape" with personal language. Another 6 creators will focus on site customary creation, and will create works compatible and mutually promotional works according to the cultural context, ecological environment, the architectural structure of the exhibition space, and their own life experience.
The expression forms of the works exhibited involve movies, site painting, and site incidental events, device, sculpture, photography, and supernatural prediction.Organized by: Nanjing Sanchuan Modern Art MuseumCurators: Mr. ZhangWei, Ms. YuGaoSpecial Events:
