Based on immersive participatory observation of the curatorial practice of the 2019 OCAT exhibition Rural Construction through Art in Shenzhen, we identified two modes of community-based artistic interventions: a cultural "governance/capital" intervention deeply embedded in the social structure and a collective experimental art production intervention dissociated from the social structure. However, both forms of "production art" are essentially "unities of opposites" integrating incorporation and resistance, consistent with the socialist art policy of promoting the flourishing of all types of arts. Though the aesthetic divide between "art for society's sake" and "art for art's sake" positions these artistic interventions in different places in society, we argue that the domain of Chinese contemporary art is shifting away from the studio and toward scenes, events, experience, and dialogue. The approach of "the era of mass art" also means that "art-as-resistance" is being legitimized as "art-as-incorporation" in a subtle but unremitting way. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
