University Art Gallery “Jun Yang: HERO—this is WE,” a two-channel video installation that explores the notion of nationalism in historical, cultural and political contexts. The flag is explored as a symbol of national existence, pride and self-identification. In one of the two videos narrated by the artist, Yang appropriates mass media sources to illustrate China’s political, economic and cultural development since he left the country as a child. In the second video, in which footage from the 2004 Athens Olympics runs in slow motion silently alongside the first, Yang renders various flags white to suggest one international people.
