A Man ; A Village ; A Museum

After a residency of a few weeks in the Van Abbemuseum in Eindhoven (NL) ; Chinese artist Li Mu developed a unique art project. In his home town ; Qiuzhuang - a small village 800 kilometres south of Beijing - he copied classical modernist artworks by well-known Western artists like Sol LeWitt ; Dan Flavin ; Richard Long ; Andy Warhol ; Daniel Buren ; Carl Andre ; John Körmeling ; as well as Ulay and Marina Abramovic from the collection of the Van Abbemuseum ; displaying them in the houses and streets of Qiuzhuang. For more than a year ; Li Mu collaborated with the villagers ; trying to create the experience of what art brought to him and what it could bring to them.
