Harmonious Society
Asia Triennial Manchester 2014
by Jiehong Jiang
The publication is produced on the occasion of the exhibition of the same title organised by the Center for Chinese Contemporary Art (CFCCA) from January to April 2014 as part of the Asia Triennial Manchester 2014 (ATM14). The exhibition was held in venue across Manchester, including the CFCCA, John Rylands Library, Manchester Cathedral, Museum of Science and Industry (MOSI) and the National Football Museum.
The exhibition brought together more that 30 contemporary artists of Chinese heritage responding to the ATM's theme 'Conflict and Compassion'. The exhibition re-examined the 'conflicts' and 'harmony' in east Asia. It contextualized these amidst the unprecedented political reform, economic development and rapid urbanization that Mainland China has seen in the past three decades. The curatorial vision identified a 'harmonious society' that presents no conflict and extends its cultural and philosophical connotations to be perceived in a global context.
Including plates of art works and artist biographies.
