DEMONSTRATION: THE ART OF DECISION MAKING TECHNIQUES

FOSUN FOUNFATION, SHANGHAI
2023.3.30 – 2023.5.14

As technology permeates our lives,
is art being made, or is it code?
Is it software being updated, or is it cognition?
Are they influencers, or famous artists?
 
In the constant flood of technological advancement,
we gain convenience, but we also lose our bearings.
See how a new generation of Chinese and international artists
face a new world each day with a new mindset,
and use the accelerated pace of technology to push back
and open up a new direction in art.

(March 9, 2023, Shanghai) From March 30 to May 14, 2023, Fosun Foundation will present the group exhibition Demonstration: The Art of Decision-Making Techniques, curated by Xu Zhen and featuring the innovative new media practices of fifteen artists: Shi Zheng, Li Hanwei, Wang Ziquan, Payne Zhu, Fang Yang, Fei Yining, Bian Yunxiang, Feng Zhixuan, Shan Liang, Tian Yi, Li Xindi, Andrea Muniáin, Lauren Lee McCarthy, Paul Chan, and Tala Madani. This dialogue, involving more than twenty works in film, video, installation, and mixed media, shows how a new generation of young Chinese and international artists is working with the entirely new contexts and challenges of algorithms, artificial intelligence, and virtual worlds, using technology to reflect on technology, creating, inventing, and testing their own responses and lived experiences.
