Chambers Gallery, Caochangdi, Beijing<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

2019, 11.11 to 2020, 1.11<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yin Xiuzhen and Song Dong<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe one goeth to the other because he seeketh himself, and the other<\/p>\n\n\n\n

because he would fain lose himself. Your bad love to yourselves maketh<\/p>\n\n\n\n

solitude a prison to you.\u201d Friedrich Nietzsche, \u201dThus Spake Zarathustra\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ironically on \u201cSingle\u00b4s Day\u201d in China \u201cOne\u201d is not the loneliest number. November 11th doubles up 1 and 1 twice. 11 \u2013 a number that looks like chopsticks. It is this day that Yin Xiuzhen and Song Dong celebrate 18 years of their continuing \u201cchopsticks\u201d-project. The artists couple got married already in 1992 and started this particular project in 2001. So it is coming of age and gets a beautiful beautiful birthday celebration at Chambers Gallery showcasing a cross-section of works from that period alongside some new works.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What is their secret to first of all \u2013 a successful life together as a creative couple and \u2013 secondly successful careers independently from one another? \u2013 It is the chopstick approach: \u201cmutual trust, equality and independence\u201d. Never did two people announce their love for each other more convincingly. Happy anniversary!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
