About

Datong Dazhang, real name was Zhang Shengquan, was born in 1955 in Datong City, Shanxi. Just 45 years later on New Year's Eve 2000, the pioneer of contemporary Chinese performance art killed himself. On the 60th anniversary of his birth, Power Station of Art has teamed up with Wen Pulin Archive to create a retrospective of this talented, troubled artist through film and photography, as well as a large number of Zhang's manuscripts, sketches, art programs and notes.
