Ni haifeng biography of george

“‘Red, Black, White’ was an art group. The important point about the group was its concept, not the details of what we actually did. We wrote ‘cabbage’ in one of our works but we could have written ‘spinach’, it didn’t matter. The main concept of the group was an attitude towards ordinary language.

We had been discussing this for almost half a year before the group was established.

We finally decided to establish a group and do an exhibition while we were taking a train to Beijing, to see Rauschenberg’s show. We started to prepare for the exhibition right after we returned from Beijing.

Our exhibition was held at the exact same time as our graduation show.

I think the most radical thing that our group did in 1985, was to declare that individual authorship was not important, and we refused to sign our works. It was particularly radical because Chinese contemporary art at that time was dominated by Expressionism.
