In the mid-1990s, the Yuanmingyuan Artist Village dissolved, and artists resettled in Songzhuang's Xiaopu Village in the eastern suburbs of Beijing. The affordable living conditions and relatively free creative environment attracted independent artists from all over China. They arrived with utopian dreams and a thirst for artistic freedom, surviving and creating in the name of art, and developing a unique way of life. Over time, more flocked to the area, leading to the emergence of related industries and small businesses. Streets, shops, taverns, artist studios, and village residences formed a complex network. Over the course of more than a decade, Xiaopu Village transformed from a handful of artists to China's largest art community, with a population of over ten thousand. The cohabitation and interactions with indigenous peoples, local government, and commercial capital, all contributed to Songzhuang's distinctive artistic ecology and made it a microcosm of China's transitional era.

Poster for Four for See Beauties

2022 · ★ 0.0 (0)

The video shows women nurturing each other and a baby. We see fish and other marine creatures, a sauna, the autumn sea – contrasts of heat and cold. The gallery were it is screened is heated to resemble human body temperature. Prouvost’s piece harks back to the pre-linguistic beginnings of human life, a time of metamorphosis, when touch and sound are primary. How would it feel to be a baby again? Or to swim in the sea like a fish? The artist reminds us of our watery origins: the slender-tailed sperm evolves into a fish-like embryo and finally into a human infant.

It turns out. a kind of time capsule, the works were created over half a century ago,
