Tang Dixin, Reverse

Interactive performance installation. Tang Dixin consistently emphasizes the site-specificity and eventality of art, often through pieces that challenge the artist himself and provoke viewers. In Reverse, a human-powered propeller is set against a massive industrial fan. In a setting that recalls extreme sports, Tang Dixin finds an expression for the instinctively alienated state of his generation. Viewers are invited to participate in the piece.

This artwork was featured in the UCCA exhibition "ON | OFF: China’s Young Artists in Concept and Practice, ” 2013
