중국 동시대 염속예술이 보여주는 사회주의 인민 해체

Abstract

'Gaudy Art' is an art that is 'Pretty' and ‘Deceived'. At the end of the 90’s, Gaudy art was on the position which opened the 2000’s and it played an important role in promoting Chinese contemporary art on the world ART market, and unlike the previous two groups, cynical realism and political pop arts, it was still able to occupy a post-socialist side of China on its extension line. Gaudy art also served as an important mirroring to new capitalism and consumerism in china socialism. They have shaken away political and depressed matters, and have started a new art very close to life that is light, pretty and politically irrelevant. The Kitsch works of the Gaudy Art have completed itself by externalizing the Chinese 'socialism - post socialism' transformation stage with the following important objects. First of all, The Kitsch artist deal with the images of Mao representing the socialist era. It was arranged on a screen in contrast to the flesh of a woman. Here, the flesh of a woman is an object that is cheaply offered to men, and at the same time, it becomes a woman herself, which is the subject of consumerism. Secondly, The Kitsch artist deal with Mao's ideology and its re-cite the embodied objects. This is an object in the everyday life of the Chinese people who experienced the Mao period, and at the same time exposes the Chinese socialism of the last period, which satisfies their demands for Western buyers who have the thought of the mystique-ness of China. Thirdly, they are concrete daily necessities related to '3 Nong' which shows the characteristics of Chinese socialism. Here, the means of explaining Chinese socialism which is Asiatic Mode of production, such as farming, farmers, and farm work are enclosed within. Also, those means point out the chinese socialism that their socialism is not made up of factory workers in the city which is a paradox. At the same time, it exposes a very comic situation in which the present capitalist value is expressed in this contradictory situation. Li xianting said that there is a 'criticism / satire' in the planned word of Gaudy Art. In fact, researchers studying Gaudy Art say that the power of Gaudy Art is being satirical. Pop Art has only brought that of the public in terms of form, but still is in the category of Art. However, Kitsch imitates what is in art and brings it into life. Gaudy art is that of which Kitsch is brought into Art. Therefore, when viewed from the side of art, it belongs to pop art, and kitsch in life comes back into art.
