The Site of the Everyday in the Practices of Contemporary Chinese Art

Dr Wang Ruobing
Fine Arts

The research aims to rigorously and critically contextualise the everyday as an object of theory and a material of art practice in the context of contemporary art made by Chinese artists. It questions how the details of everyday life provide a site of possibility with unforced aesthetic statement, but not gentrification aesthetics (Chang 2014), in critiquing the human condition from the perspective of Chinese culture.
