Ma Liuming 馬六明
Jean pointed out to me a Chinese artist of some interest for his gender-bending and sexual-themed performance pieces and photo shoots. A lot of it looks too in-your-face somehow to really succeed as art, but some of the images are haunting. I found a representative set of images at a site called ionly.com, which bills itself as an "history of exhibitions" (zhanlan shi 展覽史). What a cool resource that is! In addition to 144 images with complete citation and exhibition information, there are three full-length feature articles in Chinese on Ma Liuming.
Also of interest, perhaps: an English article from Artzine ("a contemporary Chinese art portal") laments that Ma Liuming got chubby, though lucky for him the value of his sexy photos continues to escalate. Hmm...
