New York is a city where you're so alone, you're an individual, you can disappear. You can make something happen. But it's very different to make something happen in the art world.

China has a rich history that has spanned millennia. It consists of the histories of many nations and regions.

In an environment without public platform nor protection, the individual is the most powerful and most responsible.

I think it’s a responsibility for any artist to protect freedom of expression and to use any way to extend this power.

There are no outdoor sports as graceful as throwing stones at a dictatorship.

All movies in China are censored. Out of 600 movies produced in China, only 60 are allowed to show in theatres.

China spends a lot of resources and effort on gaining soft power over culture. The hope is that it can be the last lifeline for the Party's survival. Obviously, the idea will fail.
