Gavin Turk
Gavin Turk (United Kingdom, 1967) is a British artist known for his provocative works that challenge concepts of authorship and identity. A prominent figure among the Young British Artists, Turk gained early notoriety when the Royal College of Art refused to award him a degree for his 1991 installation 'Cave,' which featured a blue heritage plaque commemorating his own presence. His diverse oeuvre includes painted bronzes, waxworks, and installations that often reference art history and popular culture.

What is Chinese contemporary art?
Chinese Contemporary Art is marked by a wide range of styles and experimental approaches. In the 1980s, avant-garde exhibitions were often shut down by government officials. The 1990s saw the rise of political pop and cynical realism, while China's One-Child Policy influenced artists to explore the individual as a subject matter.
