Lu Zhengyuan
84 days, 84 works
UCCA, 798 art district, Beijing
An exhausting project: to create one unique art piece every day during 84 days. I guess it went smooth the first days, then sooner or later you run out of ideas. This is when it starts getting interesting. Also in Lu Zhengyan's collection of 84 works, some are not impressive at all, but then again some are. And is the most important the outcome of the creative process, or is the process itself the most interesting? 31 works were presented before the vernissage, then one work a day during the exhibition period.
Some examples:
- Wrote a secret on a bill, then spent it
- Pictures of scratches on cars. Did he do it or is it arranged?
- Warmed a portion of the desk with my hand. That portion of the desk was my work of art.
