A survey of Chinese French conceptualist Chen Zhen's large-scale assemblage installations from 1991 to 2000.

Chinese French conceptual artist Chen Zhen (1955-2000) is known for his large-scale works which use found objects--furniture, bicycles, barrels--to create highly textured assemblage sculptures. Short-Circuits, accompanying the eponymous exhibition, includes in-depth documentation of Chen Zhen's installations from 1991 to 2000, the year of his untimely death. Conceived for the solo show at Pirelli HangarBicocca, this monograph covers the most important years in the artist's career and explores the influence of his work on the artistic dialogue between East and West. This publication contains pivotal texts by Alexandra Munroe of the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, Marco Scotini of NABA, Milan, and FM Centro per l'Arte Contemporanea, Milan, and Vicente Todolí, the exhibition curator. The book also includes detailed descriptions of each work on display and a selection of preparatory drawings and sketches made by the artist.
