Crimes Without a Scene: Qian Weikang and the New Measurement Group
Liu Ding and Carol Yinghua Lu
In the mid 1990s, the Shanghai artist Qian Weikang and the Beijing artist collective New Measurement Group (Chen Shaoping, Gu Denxin, and Wang Luyan) stopped making art. They did not foresee the difficulty we would encounter today in revisiting their work only two decades later.
