Once: Colin Chinnery He An Zhang Hui<\/strong><\/a>
Tang Contemporary Art<\/strong> (Gate No.2, 798 factory, Jiuxianqiao Road, Chaoyang District, Beijing, China),December 21st<\/sup>, 2013 \u2013 March 5th<\/sup>, 2014<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

At Once<\/em>, video works playing on three large projection screens take up most of the darkened exhibition space at Tang Contemporary in Beijing. Though the horror film soundtrack in the background creates a sense of unease, nothing horrible is actually happening. At first, the only thing viewers see are shots of disembodied arms or legs repeatedly kicking or punching, forming an exhibition landscape so obscure there are virtually no external references for the viewer to grasp. A second or even third viewing adds nothing to one\u2019s understanding, but if one approaches the exhibition intuitively, setting aside the habits of logic, then one might happen upon the turnkey into the show\u2019s intent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition to He An\u2019s wushu<\/em> footwork, the videos also focus on Colin Chinnery\u2019s hands as he moves through wushu<\/em> movements (the artist played a role in martial arts film Kids from Shaolin<\/em> in his early years). Zhang Hui\u2019s contribution draws from his childhood connection with railroads, and documents a ticket-seller in close-up as he works. The link between these three videos is as tenuous and subtle as He An\u2019s installations at the other side of the exhibition space. \u201cWind Light\u201d maintains the usual \u201ctemporal\u201d feel of his work \u2013 tangled around low eaves and columns made of wooden boards, wires spark as oil seeps down the corner of a wall and pools on a temporary platform. The installation is reminiscent of the poetic ruination of his piece \u201cI am Curious Yellow I am Curious Blue\u201d. Colin Chinnery\u2019s installation composes a minimalist Garden of Eden with \u201cWoman no.1\u201d, \u201cMan no.1\u201d, and \u201cSnake\u201d, and is the only part of the exhibition accessible to interpretation. In the installation, eyes cut out of existing images such as famous paintings are glued to the branches of welded steel stands. Metal branches also protrude (densely this time) from a similar installation of Chinnery\u2019s entitled \u201cFace in the Night\u201d \u2013 at the end of each branch is a black and white cutout of a political figure\u2019s mouth, among them, Stalin\u2019s and Kim Jong Il\u2019s are most recognizable; the mouths are arranged from top to bottom in order of gravity of expression, but interpreting the piece\u2019s political or tactical intent from the usual angles is largely unnecessary, which forms a possible contradiction to original intent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The fact of the matter is, the title of this collaborative show between He An, Colin Chinnery, and Zhang Hui is Once<\/em>. This is the first time the three have worked together, and the first foray any of them have made into the unfamiliar territory of video art; in doing so, they sought the unfamiliar and strange, while experimenting and attempting to achieve an intuitive harmony \u2013 a sort of \u201crightness\u201d inaccessible to the written word.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
