Young artists across China formed numerous artistic groups and organised various exhibitions of experimental art, including a considerable amount of performance art. They shared a concern for the individual in the context of Chinese society, a belief in freedom of creative expression, and a commitment to conceptual and formal renewal. ’85 New Wave is widely considered a significant breakthrough in modern Chinese art history. ]]></note></mads>
