[Cultural department] understand nothing but bureaucratic daily affairs. They don't care about culture.

[Shanghai Biennale] has been my attitude for as long as I've been practicing art and other cultural-related activities.

I think U.S. and China is a big opportunity, to be seen as partner or some kind of strategic partner maybe. But those kind of powers have a way of getting too big, then we'll have competition. And who is going to win the competition if U.S. cannot hold a strong ideology? And even the U.S. would've lost the ground to win.

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.

[Museums] all belongs to the cultural department, which is the biggest cultural department in the world.

Now many enterprises are made by individuals, so the attitude has started to change.

The world is not changing if you don’t shoulder the burden of responsibility.
