Beijing Spring, October 20, 2022

After the police forcefully shut down the Stars confrontational art show hung on a park fence, and arrest activist Wei Jingsheng for posting an essay on Democracy Wall, thousands of citizens take to the streets near Tiananmen Square, marching in protest and demanding the right to free speech—the first such demonstration since the Communists seized power. The authorities, provoked and threatened by the foreign media attention, close Democracy Wall, imprison another editor Xu Wenli for over 15 years, and force most of the Stars group (including a young Ai Weiwei) into exile. Recording it all is a daring young filmmaker named Chi Xiaoning. Hidden for decades, footage from these daring acts of rebellion are now featured in Beijing Spring for the first time ever.

"I wondered how artists have been dealing with the changes in circumstances over the past few months, and so I got in touch with four artists represented in our Chinese paintings collection who live all around the world. I asked them all the same question: Has the lockdown, or the COVID-19 pandemic, affected your work, and if so, how?"⁠ ⁠

Find out more about the experiences of these artists in our latest story by our Chinese Paintings Programme Co-ordinator, Felicitas von Droste zu Hülshoff.

Michael Sullivan’s Birthday

Professor Michael Sullivan, who bequeathed his vast collection of modern Chinese art to the Ashmolean, was born #onthisday in 1916.⁠⁠

Michael was a leading scholar of Chinese art, as well as a longstanding friend and supporter of the Museum. He was able to build up one of the greatest private collections of modern and contemporary Chinese art in the world through his life-long friendships with prominent Chinese artists, who presented many inscribed paintings, prints, drawings, and albums to him and his wife Khoan (1919–2003).⁠⁠

One of these artists is Qu Leilei (b. 1951), a Chinese artist living in Britain who is well-known for his ink and brush work. Qu Leilei painted this portrait of Michael Sullivan in 2012. ⁠⁠

Sine Theta Magazine is excited to announce its 7th print issue drop: Issue #7 "MUD 泥" is available for purchase! Grab it now at sinetheta.net/7.

This issue, themed in deep reflection and natural imagery, takes the visceral impulses of creation and translates them into art. Our editor-in-chief, Jiaqi Kang, interviewed founding member of the 1970s activist Stars Art Group and currently British-based artist Qu Leilei about his relationship, past and present, with art as political and self-expression. Art director Elisabeth Siegel conversed with Junzi Kitchen founder Chef Lucas Sin on modern Chinese American cuisine and the balance between tradition and possibility wrapped up in a bite of northern Chinese-styled delicacies.

"MUD 泥“ features poetry, prose, installations, photography, cinematography, and visual art from Sino diasporic artists worldwide; including a self-produced theatrical show about imposed expectations by Kimberly Huang, a short story centering a dim sum trolley girl's journey towards self-actualization by Claire Cao, and an installation capturing the lifelike essence of clay and form by Lux Habrich.

"MUD 泥" is available for purchase on BLURB at: http://tiny.cc/sino7.
