“Beijing Time: China Time” proposes a panoramic vision of contemporary creation in China through installations, photography, performance, video and film, without leaving aside digital drawing, media and formats common to the seventeen artists who participated. in the exhibition project of the same name. The expression “Beijing Time” is a common expression to designate the time zones of a country, in which there is only one official time despite its extension and the existence of a notable difference between the times of some provinces located at the extremes. of the territory and the city of Beijing. The significant ambiguity of this time has also been taken into account, which can be identified with China's time in the world, given the global economic leadership that this country already visibly plays at the present. Where is China going? The artists' proposals try to answer this question: Cang Xin, Du Zhenjun, Gao Lei, Jin Shi, Li Wei, Miao Xiaochun, Qin Yufen, Shen Yuan, Sui Jianguo, Wang Jianwei, Wang Zhiyuan, Xiong Wenyun, Yi De 'er, Yin Xiuzhen, Yuan Shun, Zhang Xiaotao and Zhou Wendou, who are involved in this project; and the fifteen filmmakers who are characterized by their testimony of the changes and reformulation in their country such as Chen Kaige, Chen Tao, Han Jie, Jia Zhangke, Jie Liu, Li Hongqi, Li Yang, Peng Tao, Wang Bin, Wang Chao, Xiaolu Guo, Ying Liang, Zhang Yimou, Zhang Jiarui, Zhang Yuan and Zhao Ye.
