Japan meets China：Our Future reflected in Contemporary Art


After Olympic Games in Beijing 2008 comes next Shanghai Expo in 2010.
Chinese contemporary art has recently risen up side by side with the development of economics.
"Japan meets China" shows the encounter of Chinese contemporary art
and the Japanese contemporary art from the collection of Zeit-Foto Salon.
Most of exhibits were made between 1990 and 2008. And most of them are of large scale.
Most of Chinese artists are male, but of Japanese are female.
Such contrast reflects the difference of the art of two countries.
You can see such a difference through 101 paintings and photographs.
