- Bjorn Geldhof, Deputy Artistic Manager of the PinchukArtCentre talking about the work by Sun Yuan and Peng Yu: Seeing Is Not An Option at China China show at the PinchukArtCentre
The interpretation I get from this is how we follow orders without even knowing why or what where really doing. And the loop of doing it over and over again without care,but at the same time immense focus and rhythm
black people am i right?
"Seeing is not an option" represents when you do follow order without even looking or listening
my take on it is that like with wars and stuff everyone wants their own like power and violence and stuff but like we dont see anyone else's oppinions and we just like do our own thing
It occurs to me that repetition and blind obedience are core attributes in this exercise. Whether as an artistic statement or political... or both, its message is clear, appreciated and beautiful. The fluid, deliberate motions are symbolic of obedience and either violent or passively aggressive outcome. Sic vis pacem, para bellum.
I love your perceptive on this art presentation, it's really mind opening and thought provoking.
simple yet thought-provoking and visually pleasing. sun yuan and peng yu are truly gifted.
yes
I love your pfp btw
i would love to see an interview with this men about their feelings and their experience
This may be the wrong interpretation but I feel it shows how being violent is just 2nd nature to us and how blind it can be.
Art has no wrong interpretations
My take is that we build peace, and yet it’s taken back apart. It happens again and again. Peace is built, and taken away yet again. There is no end, and it could be changed, but nobody will.
I thought the same! We war with one another blindly all the time, without even thinking about it.
@Mayor Of Nothing that's a great interpretation too! I hadn't even thought of that.
My interpretation of this, is that sometimes, some people are blind to see how they hurt others, but that my interpretation
I agree! I think that’s a great interpretation. :)
They’re just putting a gun together

That's how it is to you. And, visually, you're correct. When it comes to art and interpretations of art, it's not just that simple.
That takes some impressive skill! When I take apart and re assemble my AK it takes at least twice as long to get the bolt correct, and put on the damn dust cover, and they are doing it blindfolded! I don't know what the message is behind this, but it looks almost litteral, like someone who has mastered a task to perfection can do it repeatedly, blindfolded. Fascinating!
Legends say this is still going today
Definitely art. What else could it possibly be?
Art? Wtf
@@sleepypigeon8560 it’s art, just because you don’t understand the meaning or don’t like the exhibition doesn’t mean it’s not art
Preparation for mass school shooting
It s concept art
Illuminati indoctrination.
in this piece you could either view yourself as the one commanding them, a witness, or one of the people partaking. That part interests me too.
The people disassembling and reassembling the guns in this vid are very skilled. Guns are a powerful tool. Shooting a gun is easy, but knowing how they work and how to take them apart and put them back together is an important form of understanding.
My view on this is how people can quickly switch between opinions without realizing the harm they are doing. They are following orders, but they don’t know that they could be harming people.
As soon as I saw this, it was immediately unnerving to me. That’s what I love about art like this. It screams the topic of shootings and gun violence to me. The fact their sight is completely restricted in any way also seems to be a way to voice that people who contribute to gun violence, shootings and anything to do with guns are blind and do not care, even if they’re aware of what it is they’re doing.
exactly. people who own guns and swear by them are blind to the harm it causes people. gun advicates are too stuck in their ways to change. not only that, but anger issues come into play as well.
In short, if a person has one, they are more likely to pull the trigger in moments of emotion. They are impossible to have their opinion about these weapons changed. Two reasons why I strongly believe guns need to be outlawed- it would stop a lot of unnecessary bloodshed
@@hooves2noodles_artbad guys aren't gonna give up their guns if we ban em, and those are the ones we gotta worry about, not old fudd who goes to the range every sunday
Blind and obedient with a deadly outcome.
This piece, clear-as-day, is meant to represent following orders blindly; fulfilling requests regardless of questionablity. We go in empty motions, doing the same tasks over and over again in a never-ending loop.
That lack of the ability to question your own actions, to pause for a moment and say "No." causes these bloody conflicts the AKs represent. We are constantly enabling conflicts because seeing is not an option.
Theoretically, we could remove these blindfolds, but it is far scarier to see yourself pushing genocide and war than it is to obediently act under someone else's whim and call.
_I am officially Socrates_
Just like that one scene from Mars Attacks
Me and the boys racing to see who can assemble guns in the office the fastest:
I see something really beautiful and uniting in this presentation. There are a bunch of men with real guns who can just shoot all the rest if they decide to. Or they can shoot the public. And since they are blindfolded the rest wouldn't be able to protect themselves or react fast enough. I think it shows he we are all united in this world and we have to trust each other.
The big thing is they can’t see they could very well be shot, I feel trust takes a big part in this exhibit
My interpretation is that these people got paid to do this and be viewed by people they couldn't even see. I would not want to be put on display and have to perform while not being able to see who is watching me, but there is an amount of money that would make me do this. Makes you think about the things we do that we don't want to just because we need the money.
"Of all the weapons in the vast Soviet arsenal, nothing was more profitable than Avtomat Kalashnikova model of 1947, more commonly known as the AK-47, or Kalashnikov. It's the world's most popular assault rifle. A weapon all fighters love. An elegantly simple 9 pound amalgamation of forged steel and plywood. It doesn't break, jam, or overheat. It will shoot whether it's covered in mud or filled with sand. It's so easy, even a child can use it; and they do. The Soviets put the gun on a coin. Mozambique put it on their flag. Since the end of the Cold War, the Kalashnikov has become the Russian people's greatest export. After that comes vodka, caviar, and suicidal novelists. One thing is for sure, no one was lining up to buy their cars."- Yuri Orlov
mesmerizing
it looks REAL
These guys really know there way around d an ak
This doesn't seem violent to me. Probably not to the participants in the loop. What I think is interesting is how the weapons are exchanged to another blind participant. Culpability?
I saw some older weapons hanging on the walls, hope they are/were taken care of after this exhibit closes/closed
I had expected one of the blindfolded people to forget how to assemble the guns and then just kinda stand there for a few minutes trying to make it look like he is assembling it.
Frik'n robots, man.
Do these guys get paid?
I don’t know what’s the meaning
The gun spread and bring the chaos, we can’t even stop this.
Art doesn’t have a meaning it’s about interpretation of every singlr person because each perceives it his way but i see it as guns are the symbole of wars but they can’t stop themself only humans can but the fact that they don’t see means for me that they act like they don’t want to see the damage and they ignore it and just keep using violence again and again
For me, it’s about how we always unknowingly get ourselves into a loop that we swore we won’t take part in, and the speed of assembling the guns represent how some think they can change the loop, but in fact they’re still feeding it.
銃は人を傷つけるもの、それを疑問も持たず見もせずにみんな一斉に組み立ててるのは、どれだけ銃社会が思考停止してるか示してる。
Maybe this work means that, we were doing orders without knowing what we were doing and didn't realize it was dangerous for the others
中国人は頭が良いな、彼らのアートは一番皮肉が効いてる
A significant percent of population repeat similar movement patterns every day, but our lives progress in no meaningful way.
Suggestion: would be interesting to have participants also wear noise canceling headphones, nose plug, and gloves to numb almost all senses. Repeat the art with a beautiful background, smell, and music to show what humanity is missing.
I love Ak rifles
Are they real people?
#Art
Everything was fine until 1:22
I got drip
BOI
bro what.
yes
China and Russia
This was great before the guy started blathering
The participants are all blind young white men systematically trained. It should represent all nations of humanity for it to be accurate. Interesting piece though.
Même si une des personnes s'arrête de faire cette tâche répétitive et meaningless, les autres continueront de la faire aveuglément sans que sa rébellion n'ait aucune conséquences... A moins que...
It's just people loading a gun blindfolded. I thought it was standard for people to do this as an exercise in the military to test arms proficiency. Nothing really interesting.
You wanna talk blind obedience: make them point the guns at something unknown, then we'll talk
it would be interesting for the installation for them to all point them at the crowd while blindfolded after each round of reconstructing them
The essence of the art is more in the loop and the synchronization. A group of people blindly synchronized and cycling an action on command. Speaks to peoples propensity for group think. The fact that it’s guns is the most extreme consequence of a hive mind. They are Chinese artists after all
I don’t like this Illuminati squid games bs.
wat
@@purplenumberF Did I stutter?
Oh dear. Illuminati and Squid Games...is this in relation to the art piece? I'd love for you to explain! It is quite cryptic isn't it....
Huh💀
Hahahahha! Like it or not, it's been here long before, and will definitely be here long after your departure on earth.
