Musée National d'Art Contemporain
by Tang Contemporary Art
Location: Tang Contemporary Art
Date: 24 Mar - 30 Apr 2012

Based on the confused standard of culture and value of modern China, this work of Wang Du: National Museum of Contemporary Art. is brought fourth with an idea of utopian notion.  the model of the "museum" is made of dissected pieces of aircraft carrier battle ship, including underground facilities and functional representations.  The identity of a aircraft carrier battle ship is often the symbol of a strong nation, and what a weak nation dreams to obtain, in the view of Wang Du, a fully functional, conceptual driven museum is what really symbolizes the strength of a nation.
