Signed and numbered in the lower margin; unframed // Hide in the City No. 37 by Liu Bolin is a striking 2007 photograph from the artist's renowned Invisible Man series. In this piece, Bolin camouflages himself against a wall covered with Chinese propaganda text, blending seamlessly into the urban landscape. His meticulous body paint allows him to disappear within the wall, creating a visual commentary on themes of identity, conformity, and the individual’s relationship to society. Bolin’s performance art captures the tension between the self and the collective, particularly within the context of modern Chinese society. This signed and numbered photograph not only showcases Bolin’s technical skill but also serves as a profound critique on the erasure of individuality within a regulated environment.

What is Performance Art?
Performance Art is a genre of fine art that is traditionally interdisciplinary, involving various art forms. It can be scripted or unscripted, random or carefully orchestrated, spontaneous, or meticulously planned, with or without audience participation. Performance Art can be presented live or through media, with the artist either present or absent. It typically involves four basic elements: space, the performer’s body or presence through a medium, time, and the relationship between performer and audience. The artwork consists of actions performed by an individual or group in a specific time and space.
