About the book

In "The Chinese version" , arrangements of characters are according to formal, not semantic, criteria. Each character therefore may retain its individual meaning, but not as a syntagm of a sentence. These works juxtapose simplified characters with the "lost" characters excluded by official general publication guidelines. By their very presence in these paintings, these "illegal" characters constitute a further repudiation of state policies of cultural degradation. Exhibition: ZKM Center for Art and Media, Karlsruhe, Germany (05.09.15 - 31.01.2016).
