Zhang Huan

I was researching performance artists and came across Zhang Huan. We did not discuss him in class but I find his work to be very interesting. Huan's performances usually involve his body, most on the time being nude. Huan is an artist from China.

I particularly like Huan's Boston performance when visiting the Museum of Fine Arts because I am from Boston so I am familiar with the area. The picture below is Huan sitting on a stack of books. Along with the photographs of his performance he explains how he never liked books growing up and was always pressured to study.

Here are other photos of Huan's work that I found interesting:
