How to evaluate the May 4th Culture and Art Festival of China Renmin University?

A young man holding a red flag entered the exhibition hall with a serious face. The young men and women beside him are holding a new new youth magazine in their hands and wearing May 4th youth style clothes. The man is a black mountain with thousands of layers of black, and the woman is a blue hexagram, a black skirt, white socks and black shoes. Of course, there are also very modern young people in the team. While distributing New Youth magazine, they randomly interviewed the audience around them, and there were people dressed as modern people behind them, pushing garbage. This is the performance of the opening of this exhibition. The curator is very careful. The young assistants were all dressed in May 4th costumes, and many participating artists dressed up carefully. From static works to flowing people, the venue is full of young and soft beauty.

May 4th Movement: The concept of the May 4th Movement The most striking thing about this exhibition is its integrity, and the integrity of the exhibition is enough for the May 4th Movement. As for the details, the May 4th people were too bloody, too rigid and too heroic. If there is a time machine to let those idols come and have a look, I think they are almost asleep. Today, we have a lot of literary spirit. After all, times have changed. Although we have something to overthrow and something to take back, we express it in different ways. Although the clothes of the assistant girls in the exhibition are May 4th style, they are far from being so conservative. At least the black skirt is shortened by more than half.

Young: The artists participating in the exhibition are all from the 1970s to the 1980s, but many of their works look very post-90s. Young people can't generalize, nor can they say that everyone has * * * characteristics, because no matter what era, everyone has them, especially in 2008. Youth comes from mentality, from dressing up, from idle life, and more from persistence, that is, persistence in youth. Zhang Suiyang, a conceptual photography artist from Guangzhou, expressed the state of young people in his eyes in the form of casplay popular among young people. He paid attention to a younger group than himself.

Art: As an art, this exhibition is mainly about painting, which is related to the composition of the artist and the orientation of the viewer. For the technique, even if it is abstract, we can still see the skillful brushwork trained by basic skills for many years. As the theme of performance, there is still too little relationship with society. Paying attention to one's own heart is the universality of this generation. Artist Shen's installation works are composed of a group of monsters and bloody hands inspired by China's southern door gods, which show a protest against American power politics. The sculptor Chi Yishan used pink twisted humanoid monsters to show the distortion of human nature. Deng Jing created the Red Gate series with a touch of the Forbidden City, which is a typical young mentality and self-expression.

For the exhibition, I thought of the May 4th Movement in China history and the 86 trend in China art history. I don't know when I can catch up with such a history-changing movement again. Of course, this is not the artist's own problem, this is a society, and artists just feel the society and express it.
