The "FAT (Film, Art & Theatre) China" exhibition brings the spirit of independent creative practice in China to the University for the Creative Arts’ Farnham campus. It will showcase collections from recently launched Chinese Independent Film Archive (CIFA) located in Newcastle University. A range of thought-provoking works in film, art and theatre produced by independent artists from China will be displayed to throw a new light on creative practice and provoke discussions about a range of social and political issues in China. "FAT China" presents Ren Zhijun’s drawings, Wang Wo’s film posters and Wu Wenguang’s documentary – Bumming in Beijing. By showcasing different forms of artistic works from the three artists, the audience will have a glimpse into the artistic spirit in China from the 1980s onwards.
