photo: ZHANG HUAN, ..."residing between Shanghai and New York, Zhang Huan began his career in Bejing, as part of a post-Tiananmen creative movement known as "Beijing East Village". In his work, the artist commonly uses his own body as subject, often placing himself in physically taxing situations. These challenges are conceptual and through them he explores the cultural tensions that he has experienced both in China and as an expatriate living in New York" (press release), MAX LANG, Oct 26, 2006
