I believe many people hear about Ge Yu because of the sudden red Ge Yu Road between Baiziwan Road and Baiziwan South Second Road in Beijing. That is a artistic act of Ge Yu. Later, it was included in some navigation software and can be seen even in navigation searches.
However, in the end, this Ge Yulu did not exist for a long time. It only existed for a while and the road administration department removed it. This is how they responded. It was on the navigation software, which does not mean it is officially recognized. In other words, it is just a self-righteous behavior of some people.
The reason why "Ge Yulu" appears on those navigation software is that the road signs on the navigation software are all data collected by the collection vehicle, and they are uploaded like that after collection. How could ordinary people know that there will be people who joke about the road and label their names.
Ge Yu later made many performance art . However, among many artistic behaviors, I think his performance art has given me great doubts. He wrote a love letter to his girlfriend. After the love letter was written, he used a small hair dryer to send it to his girlfriend without touching her hands. It is called "using the wind to send letters."
Ge Yu lives in Langfang, Hebei, and his girlfriend lives in Haidian, Beijing. The two places are more than 70 kilometers apart. In this way, I used the wind to deliver messages along the way.
During this period, of course, I also encountered some interesting things. When a sanitation elder sister saw him blowing something with the wind, she thought it was a piece of waste paper and wanted to help him pick it up and throw it into the trash can. Ge Yu had no choice but to explain to her that this was a useful way to send messages with the wind. After hearing this, the elder sister said, "It's all nonsense." This is what the elder sister said to him, so Ge Yu had to laugh back with an awkward laugh and continue on the way. The eldest sister might be thinking to herself that this person must be idle and has nothing to do, and is doing these boring things.
Immediately afterwards, at night, I met a curious elder sister. As soon as the elder sister guessed, she guessed the love letter written by Ge Yu. She said, "Young people like to do these." As she said that, she lowered her body and read the words in the letter, but she read Ge Yu as Gao Yu.
Ge Yu has to plan a good route for this love letter. At night, I blew the letter to the hotel and stayed in the hotel to facilitate charging his device. By the time he delivered the love letter to his girlfriend, the letter had been rotten in two parts. More than two weeks have passed since his girlfriend's birthday.
We want to ask, what is the meaning of doing this? Is it to feel the charm of the wind or to feel the changes in the appearance of the love letter? Or is the past always following the wind, I didn’t think of what he was going to express. Because during this process, he not only wasted a lot of time, but also money.
On a street in Chengdu, He Liping picked up two bags of sand, poured the sand on the side of the road, then spread the sand, and lay down the whole person, holding a goblet in his hand, drinking the drink leisurely. Watching the people coming and going on the streets, enjoying his "sea time".
passers all looked at He Liping's special move strangely. What He Liping wanted to express is "As long as there is a sea in his heart, you can be Maldives anywhere."
Then He Liping was still wearing shorts and a bath towel, walking on the street like that, regardless of other people's eyes. He is a life of freedom of expression.
He Liping's performance art is quite good, and he is also expressing a positive and optimistic attitude. But the latter behavior is a bit unsuitable to walk around in public.
In a corner, chant There is a piece of paper hanging around your neck, which says "Don't comment during the hatching of eggs to avoid disturbing the next generation." There were some straw and eggs next to him, and two people were discussing some issues.
The two men were also very curious about the man's behavior and were asking him what this means, waiting for him to solve his doubts. He was at the first public performance art exhibition in the country at that time. And this performance artist is also quite famous.The work conveys expectations for a new life that is about to be born, and puts a vision of a new generation with more space for exploration, and abandons the concept of solidification.
These three so-called performance artists are using their behavior to express what they want to express to us. But we understand some, some we don’t understand some, and we don’t know whether this so-called performance art is just a sensational or a maverick behavior.
Is the artist really different from ordinary people? I don't think so. I just think that some performance artists are not art at all. In their eyes, anything can be art. But when ordinary people do it, they don’t think it’s art anymore. They are just holding the title of an artist and doing some boring so-called artistic behaviors. They do this, but they do something useful that can really help others.
However, these so-called performance artists still have something to say. Their confident behavior and indifferent attitude are worth learning from. Don't learn their boring behavior.
