Again, we saw a movie.

This time over a chinese artist underground group called "FUCK YOU" .  I never heard of them before and at the first sight it seemed to me, that they only want to have peoples attention ( who wants not ) to provoke in a "it has to be ohter art"- way and because of that, they´re using dead people, cannibalism, peoples fears and of course oversized provokation like that "fuck you" project.

and of course it is provocation, but in my opinion far away from art. if an artist now sais to me, everthing is art, than i would answer yes, and everybody is an artist, then...maybe i understand those chinese group projects, as a sort of a question at us all what all this live, our so called zivilisation, the sense( and not only in china ) is about. 

 I dont think that they want to shock. In first line they´re trying to wake up themseves with what they are doing. FElling something.

Otherwise, I wouldn´t force myself to eat a dead fetus if i wouldn´t believe in what i do, or what i want to show with that. 

For me that actually is art, the believing and the feeling. I dont care, what it actually is then.

as i said, one of the group had showed an artist who did eat a fetus. China has this middle adge children law and maybe it isn´t such a far thought, that the people are seeing themselves as products like frozen meat, a chicken, only being produced for function, for work and to serve the state.

I remember a sentence what was said in the film, i totally agree with:

"We are a reflector of the world around us". 

If you take this all, one can say, that they´re eaten up themthelves trying to get rid of controle and to break out of a circle, they´re never felt related to in no way.  so i would say fuck you, too.  ( With acception to say that to other people while they´re watching the chinese flag rising. I bet those people are also believing in something or somebody, and saying fuck you, while standing there. Blind, but not stupid. )
