2011年在威尼斯双年展中,五位中国艺术家通过气味演绎呈现了这个国家。前来观摩国家赞助的中国馆的观众们,在这里遭遇到了一个被抽象成茶,荷、白酒、中药和熏香的中国。然而,即使是以当代艺术自己的“奥运会”标准来看,这种对文化符码的单纯依赖也显得太过了。 In 2011 at the Venice Biennale, five Chinese artists presented the country with a scent. Visitors who came to visit the China Pavilion sponsored by the state met here China that was abstracted into tea, liquor, white wine, Chinese medicine and incense. However, the simple reliance on cultural codes is excessive, even in the contemporary “Olympic Games” standard of contemporary art.
