Sixty-percent of the world’s oil paintings are produced in Dafen, the majority of which are reproductions. Dafen’s artists produce anonymous works for unknown customers, operating no differently than a faceless factory churning out counterfeits, replicas and nothing close to what would be considered art. REGIONAL collaborated with the otherwise commoditized community in Dafen by asking selected individuals, to imagine themselves in their professional medium. REGIONAL

Yes, I will stick to two nicks Ms G and Nopke (first and last name),to prevend mix ups and misunderstanding here .. I will do it in my own brain though … (like a bar indoor)
Zhang Fei’s is pretty good. what do these guys paint when no one tells ‘em to? What do you do to chill if you’re working solid in the office painting?
Is it possible poor kids from the jiangxi province are better off than poor kids from putney because the sh*t job they’ll do when they grow up is painting?
