“……; now I knew that the more the Dinosaurs disappear, the more they extend their dominion, and over forests far more vast than those that cover the continents: in the labyrinth of the survivors' thoughts. From the semidarkness of fears and doubts of now ignorant generations, the Dinosaurs continued to extend their necks, to raise their taloned hoofs, and when the last shadow of their image had been erased, their name went on, superimposed on all meanings, perpetuating their presence in relations among living beings.” (The Dinosaurs, Calvino)

LIU Guangli lives and works in Paris. Guangli's works often emerge from the intersection of different approaches to depicting history and events, and ultimately find their own places in installations, videos, documentaries, and paintings.

Chen Zirui is a Chinese artist now in The Graduate School for Moving Image of Kunsthochschule Kassel. His works are often based on his own identity and address political and social issues from the point of view of technology and media.
