Degeneration

Description:

Exhibition catalogue for the group show 'Degeneration' at the OCT Contemporary Art Terminal Shanghai and curated by Mariagrazia Costantio, which was held between 22 Dec 2013 - 23 Mar 2014. The exhibition represented young Chinese new media artists, including Chen Wei, Chen Zhou, Cheng Ran, Guan Xiao, Hu Yun, Li Ming, Li Ran, Lu Yang, Ma Qiusha, and Ye Linghan. The exhibition examined the dual meaning of 'degeneration': deterioration and ('degeneration') and the lack of being part of a generation ('de' 'generation'). The young artist used a combination of media to embody their reflections of degeneration and denying their belonging to a generation to explore the issues of continuation and chasm in contemporary art.
