Dashnzi 798 visit with Xinjian and Ling

Xinjian is on a Beijing weekend visit. His girlfriend Ling is living here now. We went to the art district 798. A great area blooming of creativity. Nowadays also commercialism, it has become a very cool place and Chinese art has been very hot for a while. The art buyers even complain that it too expensive here now.

Here is the censure not as strict as the rest of China. For example can you not find pictures on Chinese Google on the Tiananmen massacre. But here artists are using it to express them selves.

Click on the photo and check out the details in the painting. Coool...



One of the more commercial places at 798. A "museum" of mr.Shoe and the history of Nike Air Force 1. Air Force 1 is celebrating its 25th year.
