About the exhibition: Now on view at Spring Workshop, Qiu Zhjie’s detailed maps redefine our world in a close examination of its actual and conceptual territories. During his May residency at Spring, the artist re-imagined this terrain with large-scale maps made of ink and tape. Found objects and spheres of glass, wood and steel are placed throughout, resulting in a landscape of new interrelationships. The maps’ journey began in Rotterdam with Qiu’s exhibition “Blueprints” (2012) at Witte de With Center for Contemporary Art which also featured the Map of Reactivation that served as the artistic statement of the 2012 Shanghai Biennale.
