《Space Program For Artistic Use: Lunar Landing Obj.001》
180cm x 60cm Print 2019
“<Lunar Landing Obj.001>, a comprehensive printmaking, using a skill of combining both silkscreen printing and digital printmaking, presents on etching paper at the Hane Muller Museum. This work of art is actually a small episode in the "Space Program For Artistic Use", which was born out of the first two drafts. This group of triptychs focuses more on my emotions and attitudes. The "fork" symbol appears by coincidence in the first two drafts, without any logic. At that time, I was at that stage of my life without feeling my ego or guilt. I didn’t know what I want, let alone how to get what I "want". This also directly leads to the burst of instincts and desires according to the situation, then the form of "red crosses" just showing up. When I calmed down and carefully analyzed this coincidence, I had a deeper understanding of a postmodern conscious characteristic, which is the ambiguity between dreams and reality. It makes me feel even more realistic because of this precisely illogicality. When human consciousness entered the postmodern era, people's main emotion was more of an "anxiety". The moon landing plan is not about the Moon, but an ideal utopia. And "red cross" is the most intense rationality added at the end of my desperate romance.”

Introduction
-
Qidong Cui is a young printmaker from Shenyang, Liaoning Province. He graduated from the Printmaking Department of Lu Xun Academy of Fine Arts, and then went to Alfred Ceramic College of State University of New York to exchange and study. Now he is an independent artist. The inspiration of his works always revolves around the exploration of the unknown universe and the pursuit of the meaning of life. The artistic language is changeable and the sense of form is strong. He tried to use art to solve practical problems, and tried to use art to propose some new ways of thinking for life, but the results were often absurd, pedantic, and self-entertaining. Because art creation can not solve any practical problems except the metaphysical needs of artists themselves, and what we can only leave is emptiness and helplessness. His works stripped away the excessive "banter" and "play" in contemporary art, so as to find the "sacred sense" of contemporary shelf art. His representative works include the series of "Space Program for Artistic Use", the series of "Frivolois Ensemble", and the series of "There is no El DORADO".

About the exhibition
Art is a language that doesn’t need translation. For a long time, art has played an important role in the communication between China and other countries.
