About VITAL: International Chinese Live Art Festival, Manchester, UK
During 2006 Chinese Arts Centre hosted an international festival of Live Art in Manchester to raise awareness of the diverse, exciting and challenging work being made by artists of Chinese descent from across the world. The festival was the start of an extraordinary opportunity to see new work, share ideas and meet some of the key artists of our time.
VITAL 06 contained Live Art performances, film screenings, and artists talks and presentations. Selected artists - Patty Chang (USA), He Yun Chang (China), Dai GuangYu (China), Marcus Young (USA), He Chengyao (China), Mad for Real (UK), Edwin Lung (UK/Hong Kong), Lee Wen (Singapore), Lisa Cheung (UK), Yadong Hao (China/UK), Yuen Kin-leung (Hong Kong), Yuen Kin-leung (Hong Kong), Leung Po-shan, Anthony (Hong Kong) and Ying Mei Duan (Germany/China). Please see VITAL 06 for more information, reviews and images.
VITAL 07 will continue the major programme of Live Art events by Chinese Arts Centre. The festival will take place during November 2007 and will consist of a year of residencies by Chinese artists in collaboration with institutions across England. VITAL 07 activities will include an international conference as well as a programme of performances. The discussions, residencies and programmed artists will be celebrated in the VITAL publication due out in Spring 08.
