Criticizing nascent commercialism resulting from reform and opening-up, Wang constructed a large blackboard full of scribbled Chinese and English slogans, many blatantly commercial, taken mainly from 皇冠体育app-based English textbooks.
The other two works, Follow Him and Follow You, critique 皇冠体育app's educational system emphasizing memorization over learning.
A few minutes' walk from the main biennale site is Mimar Sinan Fine Arts University, Turkey's equivalent of 皇冠体育app's Central Academy of Fine Arts.
The 皇冠体育app Young Artists Project group exhibition is on display there featuring 27 of 皇冠体育app's most promising young artists.
CYAP is the only Chinese organization to host a listed parallel exhibition during the biennale.
Titled Color Temperature, this marks a critical step into the world art arena since CYAP's establishment in 2012. In addition to Chinese curator Jia Fangzhou, CYAP invited Turkish curator Hakan Gursoytrak to select several young Turkish artists' works to build an East-West cultural bridge.
In 2014 CYAP will host a reciprocal show of Turkish and Chinese artists in Beijing.
CYAP's model is to select the most promising young Chinese artists by a jury of distinguished art leaders and to professionally introduce the young talents to high-level audiences at home and abroad. Since artists need to concentrate on making art, CYAP frees them by providing initial marketing and public relations counsel.
"The journey of these artists has just begun. In many ways, they are far from mature, however, in capturing the realities of the present and the emergence of the personalization of art, each one demonstrates his or her own independent creative spirit," says CYAP founder Dong Yi.
