This exhibition provides a comprehensive overview of Cao Fei's nearly 30-year artistic journey. Utilizing the entire second-floor space of the museum, the artist crafts a "non-linear" arrangement that brings the work to life through a diverse perspective. The exhibition delves into themes of "Time," "Body," and "Technology," encompassing several of Cao Fei's significant long-term projects. Highlights include her early works during the "Pearl River Delta" period, the exploration of digital and virtual realms in the "metaverse" originating from the RMB City, and her research project HX. Furthermore, the exhibition features seven pieces making their global debut, and thirteen works/series being shown in China for the first time.
