What is new is not that it is a commodity, but that today it deliberately admits it is oue; that art renounces its own autonomy and proudly takes its place among consumption goods constitutes thecharm of novelty.

Theodore W. Adorno

Platform China Drom Space Latest Presentation Project "The Hidden Ghost"，Jointly initiated byWang Jiang × The Crowd, it invites ten artists to interact and collaborate. Taking Theodore Adorno'sstatement as an introduction, the exhibition puts forward a fact that should be faced and accepted:art has been permeated and presupposed by the logic of commodity production from its creation.The title "The Hidden Ghost" imitates the rhetoric of "value" in political economy. Through a seriesof actions before the exhibition, Wang Jiang eventually produces the extraordinary form of the project: the works of the guest artists are wrapped in a specific form and will be displayed in a concealed form within a year. 

Undoubtedly, this resorts to the establishment, negotiation, identificationand agreement of the game rules. This process has also been transformed into objects to be exchanged in the art market in the form of installations, texts, and videos. The zero-sum game and positive sum effect implied in this exhibition inevitably points to the win-win situation and game of value between the collaborators. Being packaged or exposed, the fate of these collaborative works will be determined by the collectors. With the theme of cultural materialization, the project presents the relational aesthetics that it generated and developed. 

Art critic Jerome Araki will be invited as a guest reviewer during the exhibition. The derivatives are supported by KSIEZYC in terms of fashion. We would like to extend thanks to all the friends above.
