Yue Minjun: Archeological Discovery in AD 3009
Date: 21 Mar - 19 Apr 2009

The difference of the exhibit from Yue Minjun’s previous creation format lies in its focus not only concentrating on the creation of the work itself, but further extending into the way of exhibition also. This way of exhibition could be understood as a brandy new art form of artist.

The assumption of artist is to postpone the time background of work to 2000 years later. And the content of work is assuming a show happened in the future, exhibiting their archeological discovery of human life relics today. In this archeological exhibition imagined by artist, there would be a series of unearthed relics made by artist. So the content of this exhibition includes all kinds of imagination, created by the artist’s envision, of future human being based on their archeological discovery and knowledge system towards the existing situation of human being today. However, audience will find out that people in the future assumed by the artist has made many ridiculous and funny misunderstandings of our living state today as well as the functions of those stuffs used by us.
