The Opposite House in collaboration with PZcontemporary is pleased to present an interactive performance art and installation of sculptures by Huang Rui, curated by Martina Ziesse. The exhibition will be held for three months in the atrium of The Opposite House.

Huang Rui is one of the founders of the short lived but revolutionary nonconformist avant-garde group Xing Xing (The Stars) in 1978. The Stars were the first in China after the Cultural Revolution to proclaim individual artist creativity. To this day, his works continue to be nonconformist, exploring the society that he lives in with a highly intellectual approach. Rooted in conceptualism, his works are socially and historically relevant yet intriguingly beautiful and poetic. Performance, painting, installation and sculpture form the basis of his connotations from Chinese philosophy to modern-day life. He often uses words as imagery and plays with their meaning of duplicity and irony.
