"Chen Zhen's research into the essential elements of cultural evolution involves a critical analysis of Western society. Reality is crucial. Chen Zhen's work revolves around interventions into Western reality, especially such sensitive areas as the environment and daily life in a consumer society."
VUES D'ENSEMBLE. Saint-Pierre, Gaston; Gosselin, Claude. Montréal. Québec: Centre international d'art contemporain de Montréal. 1997.60 p.: 25 ill. (12 col.) 21 X 21 cm. French and English. ISBN 2-920825-14-3.
"Precisely at time when reality is only perceivable through specialized discourses and fragmented knowledge, the exhibition Vues d'ensemble suggests an atypical overview of the means dispose of for global perception of reality. The figure of the circle thus appears in this context as a predominant geometric figure in the exhibition."
Each catalogue sells for 20.00$ CDN.
