2006 - 70 min - Couleur - Chine
Liu Xiaodong is well-known for his monumental canvases, particularly those inspired by the Three Gorges Dam project. In "Dong", Jia Zhang-ke visits Liu in Fengjie, where armies of shirtless male workers working towards the deconstruction of the city form the subject of his paintings. Liu next travels to Bangkok, where he paints sex workers languishing in brothels.
The two sets of paintings are united in their subjects’ shared sense of malaise in the face of a dehumanizing work.
