What would it be like if visitors to an exhibition could play retro-style video games alongside appreciating a piece of time-honored lacquer art? That's just a taste of what an ongoing exhibition at Beijing's Today Art Museum sets out to do with its theme of combining art with technological experiences.
The curator of the museum's biennial exhibition is Wang Xin, an art historian based in New York. She explained: "By inserting crucial historical art examples from the mid-20th century into a mix of more recent works, the exhibition invites deeper examination along the lines of our historical conditioning and our current technological and existential crisis that never truly went away."
The exhibition will run until mid-October.
