Preview Evening: 21st January 2010
Exhibition dates: 22nd January – 3rd April 2010

Artists: Conroy/Sanderson, Gordon Cheung, He Chengyao, Jonathan Baldock, Rachel Goodyear, Wang Jun, Zheng Li

Negotiable Values invites seven artists from the UK and China to create works in response to idea of ethics and moral choices. Developed out of a dialogue with Yan Yan, Director of 501 Arts Space, Chongqing, the exhibition brings together artists’ works which explore the notion of advancement and raises questions about the price of progress.

Negotiable Values takes the internal experience of and international consciousness of China’s development as its starting point. Since the implementation of the reform and opening-up policy, China has embraced aspects of Western culture but we are also now seeing the influence of China and Asia on the West.

At Chinese Arts Centre we will be presenting a selection of works with the full show being presented when it tours to 501 Arts Space, Chongqing, China in Spring/Summer 2010.
