Film Exhibition: Chinese Realities/Documentary Visions

Chinese Realities/Documentary Visions

May 8-June 1, 2013 | MoMA

Amid China's epochal transformations over the last two decades, new documentary aesthetics emerged, as the overwhelming cultural and societal challenges caused by China's transition to a free-market economy compelled professional and amateur filmmakers alike to capture new realities on screen.Working largely outside the state media apparatus, pioneer filmmakers provided bracing alternative visions of both society and filmmaking, with an ethos based on direct observation of reality and uncensored personal expression. The proliferation of the "reality aesthetic" has led to more complex notions of what reality means and how it is represented.
