Miao Jiaxin and the Korean female artist’s cooperated performance art is a mock-up of the common way of acting on pornographic website by using COM 4 as their media and its video communication and friend-making function to ultimate the representation of pornography. It’s subversive process and ending fulfills their concept and facilitates this private performance artworks to become a public channel of social media. He Libin has made his works in the wild mountain areas of Yunnan province. To respond to the old villages that are waiting to disappear, he walks from the ruins to the new built concrete bridge, naked. The falling tree branches in the woods down to his naked body, the all day long marching from storms to sunshine, he finishes in the harmony with nature by ritual sense. Shen Wei’s photography works is a group of picture putting himself naked in different environment. His naked body then becomes a pure representation which surpasses all meanings, obscure yet white and clean, not symbolic yet penetrating into the center of heart. Double-fly Art Center is a group with 9 young artists and they have done a sex test competition. They relocate the gender according to the result of comparing each other’s parts of the body. Every organ and details, like eyelash, nipples, hair, are all re-examined losing the original functions. Organs are separated from physiological functions and become symbolic of gender. Human body has realized another kind of possibility. Wang Man’s works is putting on make-up in a room full of prostitutes, his face being made repetitively in front of the mirror. Covering and being covered is related naturally. Only when the nature being covered, can the self and the ego overlap. In a special space without the truth, morality and identity, the existence of nakedness is a kind of beauty in extreme. Zhou Tao’s New York Times is the exposure of his living trace in three months during when he has connected a long enough thread behind his back. This is a work about time. The flowing living trace has been displayed graphically and every moment has been restored and finally limited within a complicated intercrossed thread ball.
