Black and White and Red All Over<br />
A new exhibition at Para Site reflects on the 1989 China Avant-<br />
Garde exhibition, which ended after two hours with an artist<br />
shooting at her own work with a pellet gun: <strong>The</strong> media later<br />
called it “the first shots of Tiananmen.” <strong>The</strong> 15 Chinese artists in<br />
this show have created art that draws on a generation’s worth of<br />
collective anxiety in the 90s. “That Has Been And May Be Again”<br />
outlines the experiences which unfolded after the 1989 exhibition<br />
and the Tiananmen massacre, and explores the directions which<br />
Chinese artists took to pursue their craft.<br />
Jun 11-Aug 10. Para Site Art Space, 22/F, Wing Wah Industrial<br />
