Vision and the City

Every city has a unique vision that makes it different from other cities. This is what people are able to sense from the vision show held at China World Shopping Mall. From the mid December to January 5, the show exhibits video artworks created by four groups of artists from Amsterdam, Berlin, Hong Kong and Taipei. In the 30-minutes long video depicting their home city and Beijing, viewers can feel the strong cultural differences. And these video can be seen on the windows and roofs at the South Gate of China World Shopping Mall with the help of six huge projectors.

The Pfadfinderei group from Berlin focuses on the "construction and reconstruction" of the both cities; Analog Recycling group from Amsterdam puts emphasis on "commonality and humanity"; ADD+ from Hong Kong cares about the history of both cities; and Show One Hand Team from Taipei tells about the culture difference hidden behind the simplified characters and the original complex. It is hoped that this mix of video and music will bring happiness and novel ideas.

Time: until January 5
Venue: China World Shopping Mall
