Never exhibited and thought lost, the reemergence of Flying Machine (1994) prompts an exploration of the relation between painting and video in the oeuvre of Zhang Peili. Given Zhang?s significance as a leading conceptual painter in the 1980s, then as a media art pioneer and educator in the 1990s and 2000s, Zhang Peili: From Painting to Video is also a nuanced study of broader developments in Chinese contemporary art?s history. Featuring contributions by historian Geremie R. Barmé, photographer Lois Conner, art historians John Clark, Katie Grube, and Olivier Krischer, and curator Kim Machan, these essays together challenge the narrative of Zhang as ?the father of Chinese video art?, highlighting instead the conceptual consistency, rigour, and formal experimentation in his work, which transcends a specific medium. By equal measure, the book embraces longstanding connections as integral to its meaning, connections between artists, curators and researchers, collaborators, colleagues and friends through China and Australia. 606 $aVideo art$zChina$vExhibitions 610 $aArt 610 $apaintings 610 $agraphic art 610 $aChina 615 0$aVideo art 676 $a777 700 $aKrischer$b Olivier$4edt$01370851 702 $aKrischer$b Olivier 712 02$aAustralian Centre on China in the World. 801 0$bWaSeSS 801 1$bWaSeSS 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910330454903321 996 $aZhang Peili$93399054 997 $aUNINA
