Since their creation in 2008, Double Fly Art Center (hereafter referred to as “Double Fly”) has created all sorts of videos. These have seemed very absurd, with a sense of the amateur, coarse and slightly decadent.
In early works such as “Double Fly robs a bank” or ” So You Think You Can Dance “, the nine members of Double Fly— Cui Shaohan, Huang Liya, Li Fuchun, Li Ming, Lin Ke, Wang Liang, Sun Huiyuan, Yang Junling and Zhang Lehua— always rig themselves out as alien to the real world.
They often start something unimaginably peculiar and the absurdity seems adolescent pranks and rebellious. But after seeing the “Farces of Double Fly Style” for five years, the default, thinking and careful arrangements in their creation has gradually emerged.
On December 20th, the new exhibition “Double-Fly, The Way to Go!–Sounds like a Real Name” will show their different appearance in the Vanguard Gallery. This so called “Painting Workshop” event brings together contents from “To Learn from Lin Ke ” and “Zhen Painting”. The nine members, currently living in different cities, separately create paintings in their own way. In the painting process, Double Fly’s new universe gradually formed and the exhibition has become the beginning of a new universe.
