A representative figure of conceptual art

The most famous conceptual artists are Atkin, John Stoke and Joseph Kassus, and China artists are Zhao Bandi, Xing Weidong, Guanhua Don, Shu Yong, He Yunchang and others. Among them, Cassus is the most famous. 1965, he enlarged the photo of a chair and a chair in real life, copied the explanatory text of the concept of "chair" in the dictionary, and then showed it side by side with the title of "one and three chairs". Let the viewer check the concept from the physical object of the chair, and let the viewer form a complete understanding and concept definition of the chair in his mind naturally, intuitively and rationally in the process of slowly checking and examining.

The work "Home Plan" by China artist Guanhua Don is a typical case. After three stages: concept discovery, concept generation and concept dissemination, I outline and establish the text according to a question or idea in my mind. He conceived a new form of social composition and defined the concept of "* * * knowing community", aiming to make people with the same idea form new residential areas outside the city and let the next generation create their own environment. Guanhua Don spent five years in the forest of Laoshan Mountain, Qingdao, China, and personally experienced how to independently solve the production methods of building, energy, food, daily necessities and other necessities with the media, Internet, publishing institutions, colleges and plants as creative materials. In order to appeal to more people of insight to turn their ideas into reality. It is the most subversive and groundbreaking artistic event after Duchamp.

The expression forms of concept music are also varied. If there is a concert: when the player is sitting on a piano and other musical instruments, he can't make a sound within a limited playing time. The purpose is to let the audience gradually hear the audience's own voice-either the sound of moving feet, or the sound of whispering, or the sound of the wind blowing through the theater window, and so on. With the passage of time, the audience can think about what "music" is with very rational and quiet thinking. If the player makes a sound, it may be-or "2" or "6" or "4" until the end of the specified performance time or when you think it is time to stop. ..... In short, these artistic actions of conceptual artists are aimed at guiding the audience to seriously reflect on the true essence of art that we have long been accustomed to.
