I deal with students every day - from China, Germany, the United States, Hong Kong and Taiwan. And I've noticed that the Chinese students are the least trained in having a sense of aesthetics. They lack any ability to sense what is beautiful or what is proper. They can be learned and skillful, but they lack the ability to make their own free judgment. It is really sad to see young adults of 20, 25 years who were never taught to make their own decisions. People who can't do that don't get a sense of responsibility. And if you lack a sense of responsibility, you push the blame onto the system.

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

To give a price to an artwork, no matter how high or low, is always absurd. It's not something that can be measured by money or by certain numbers.

I always want to design a frame that’s open to everyone. I don’t see art as a secret code.

This world should be much more open and should be much more free, so the young people would have the chance to exercise the quality of their lives.

I have people working together, doing different things: architecture, art installation, photography, publishing, and curatorial works and design.

This is a very general understanding of art in China, that being an artist can make you money and turn you into a star.
