Installation in contemporary Chinese art

The subject of the study is the peculiarities of Chinese installation at its current stage. The object of the research is installation compositions made by Chinese artists. The author examines in detail such aspects of the topic as national specifics, the main themes and typical artistic materials of the Chinese installation. Special attention is paid to the factors that influenced the formation of this artistic trend in China. The importance of the impact of the Western artistic experience is emphasized. Iconic examples of works by Chinese artists and the main trends that stand out in Chinese installations today are considered. The specifics of the female and ecological installation are investigated as well as the interaction of elements of traditional culture and innovative technologies in the installation compositions. The role that installation art plays in shaping China's international image is also mentioned. In the framework of this research, the following methods were used: historical and comparative, as well as critical analysis. The scientific novelty of this study lies in the fact that the author identified the specifics of the Chinese installation, as well as identified the factors that influenced the formation of this specificity. The main conclusions of the study are: despite the significant contribution that the study of foreign experience has made to the formation of installation art in China, modern works by Chinese artists are independent and distinctive. This is achieved through experimentation with traditional cultural objects in the process of creating compositions, as well as artists' reflection on the historical and social experience of China. The modern Chinese installation combines both the use of high technologies and the disclosure of pressing issues for modern Chinese society, as well as close attention to the country's centuries-old cultural heritage.
