Shanghai Space & Gallery Association (SGA) is very pleased to announce our major exhibition—Tangle of Revolution and Political Soul, opening on 13th November 2021, 4 pm, at Three on the Bund, Shanghai. 


Today, when the dominating rule of platform capitalism has finally cast its demise upon our free will, Philosopher Byung-Chul Han suggests that we should perhaps “play the role of an idiot” as an adaptive form of resistance. Alluding to such feelings and thoughts, we have invited over 31 artists and collective to engage in an eccentric storm of ideological and spiritual collision under this theme. The exhibition is curated by Lu Mingjun, Ph.D. in History and Young Researcher at the School of Philosophy, Fudan University.


The exhibition will run through 16th January, 2022.

Cao Yu  (b.1988)BFA & MA, Sculpture, Central Academy of Fine Arts, Beijing, China. 


Her works span a diverse range of media that include video, installation, performance, photography, sculpture and painting. With her distinctive interdisciplinary practice, sharp and bold artistic language, she has become one of the leading young artists in the field of Chinese contemporary art. By using her own physical self, Cao Yu pushes boundaries and articulates a bold new voice for her own and succeeding generations. Her work challenges propriety and other social conventions, questions the value and identity of current Chinese society using the way that is not only inherent but also performative, also shedding new light on relevant and timely women’s issues. In the process, the work of this free spirit and focused artist, opens up new possibilities.

Gao Lei’s art practice spans multiple media, including installation, sculpture, photography, and painting. Everyday objects and standardised industrial products are often adopted as his work’s essential components. Through extraction and synthetic manipulation, Gao tampers and adds on to the product’s original functions, properties and meanings. Ultimately transforming them to become a scale or model for measuring various domains such as the body, power, consumption, and religion. Through precise material testing and vectorization of graphics, Gao’s works, along with the objects they confront and the questions raised, alternate between spatial and conceptual dimensions, allowing the viewer to re-examine and remeasure our inherent boundaries with the world using a standard other than that of experience.

Li Jingxiong (b. 1987 Wuhu, Anhui Province) currently works and lives in Shanghai. In 2010 he earned his bachelor's degree in Nanjing University of Arts, Painting department; and his art master's degree in 2013.


Li Jingxiong often draws inspiration from seemingly unrelated fields (including traditional Chinese landscape painting, calligraphic art, fantasy literature, movies by Tsui Hark, music, and subcultures).  He is fond of using industrial materials that carry an “Arte Povera” quality, such as truck canvas, aluminium, and foamed plastic. While creating, he emphasizes an interplay and balance between the coarseness embedded in DIY approach and the precision found in industrial manufacturing and endeavors to bridge aspects of Chinese traditional culture with expressionism in painting based on his own experience and research into art history.

▎李怒 LI NU

「消失计划: 孤独图书馆」 

Disappearance Project: The Lonely Library

单频高清影像 (有声) Single channel HD video (sound)

05‘23“, 2018


Li Nu, artist, graduated with an MA in Sculpture from Royal College of Art, lives and works in Beijing.


Li Nu roots in everyday life. He subverts the perceived boundaries between documentary and fiction, representation and abstraction to explore and achieve a poetic language in art. Through capturing the details of everyday life, he aims to reflect  the  individual’s  mood  swings  and  the  menials  state  of  population  in  the evolution  of  macro--society.  The  apparently  unpromising  materials  of  everyday  life are transformed into something metaphorical, poignant, humorous, poetic and dramatic, challenging us to question our received experiences about life and see the world afresh. The concept that he wants to express is never what you have seen. It is always wandering between void and solid.

(b.1989) Tong Wenmin's work often focuses on the intersection between individual perception and the external environment, stimulating visual poetry and inspiring action through behaviors that at first seem counter-intuitive. Through often simplified or regulated movements, her work hints at the allegorical character of the body and action within a semantically rich context.

Wang’s practice is rooted in his unique observation and understanding of the Internet and the virtual world, exploring the threshold values between virtuality and reality, and using 3D software to imitate the absurdity in the physical world. By using narrative computer images, he copies and pastes between virtual and real spaces.

▎吴笛 WU DI

「沉默之石」Stone of Silence

⽊板油画、金箔 Oil on wood, gold leaf 

220 x 150 cm, 2020 


Wu Di (b.1979) graduated from the Central Academy of Fine Arts in 2002. She's a very versatile artist with her works touching painting, installation, sculpture and other media. Her works bring together references to a variety of situations more or less familiar to daily life – life, death and war, animal rights, belief systems and emotions – which she hopes with resonate with her audience. Wu Di loves to use classic paintings as inspiration for the antecedent to her repetitions. What is worth mentioning is that, inspiration and production occur where she employs these classics and strips them away from their narrative structure. She has been constructing a theatre with her own logic system. In each scene, she produces works through repetition.

Yang Shen's paintings focus on the connection between personal memories, experiences, fantasies and historical times. Through continuous practice and unceasing exploration of painting language, Yang has gradually established a unique personal style. His paintings are profoundly narrative-oriented, using illusory imagination to transform daily scenes into absurd and surrealistic visual experiences. He excels in juxtaposing cinematic elements, science fiction scenes and characters bearing the marks of time, to create fantastical surrealistic pictures.

Zhang Ruyi (b.1985) currently lives and works in Shanghai. Zhang's artistic practice unfolds around everyday logic. Her work occupies a unique space which reconciles artifacts, the industrial experience, and urban life. The artist finds inspiration in everyday materials. In her main narrative approach, she begins with inner intuition and explores the hierarchical interactions between individuals, material, and place.  Her work mainly involves installation, sculpture, and integrated media. She uses "reality" as "model" for drawing out moments of individual perception as the city shifts around its inhabitants, planting them within the material to bestow a significance which extends beyond the material.

Zhao Gang (b.1961) currently lives and works in Beijing and New York. He made his artistic debut as a member of the Stars Group, one of the first avant-garde artist groups to open the era of contemporary art in China when he was only 18 years old. After that, he pursued formal art education and lived successively in Europe and New York. Since returning to Beijing, Zhao Gang has turned his ever-expanding focus toward the entanglement of his personal past with Chinese history and his unique position, at once a native and a newcomer in China today, which led his art to the relationships between fluid individual identities, conflicting cultures, and the ruptured historical era.

Pocono Zhao Yu (b. 1990) is an artist, curator, and writer based in Shanghai and Paris. Zhao attended the Central Academy of Fine Arts and subsequently she received her master's degree (DNSAP) from École nationale supérieure des Beaux-Arts. Her works usually use image, video, and writing. Pocono frequently questions the authenticity of history within her works, and focuses on the identity-based and regional anxieties that stem from globalization. The neighborhood of Belleville in Paris is featured predominantly in her practice, around which she has conducted a research practice on the subtle relationship between Maghreb and France.
