Will/We Must

Zhou Tiehai’s film “Will/We Must” (1996) shows the artist’s vengeance and attitude towards the self-absorbed art market. The 10-minutes film is a witty critique of the Chinese art scene and its sucking up to foreign curators who, as medical doctors, examine and treat the Chinese artists as patients. His work’s power to amaze and provoke is the result of a host of strategies that mix antagonism with sincerity.
