Collective Space explores the concept of collective space in China where people in the old days are used to grow up in ˇĄcollective spaceˇ¦ ˇV city/town/village squares or assemblies halls or temples for public gathering or mass assemblies, be it for religious or political or social reasons. The mass assembly at Tiananmen Square in 1966 is, without doubt, among one of the largest scale. With the rapid change of Chinese economy, the prevalent change of architectural space and lifestyles in China also presents a new visual environment ˇV the emergence of public housings versus private residential building, the use of public bath houses versus private bathroom, theuse of public transport versus private cars. Despite the differences in the nature of collective activities, the notion and practice of ˇĄcollective spaceˇ¦ remains very much the same in China. The discussion of ˇĄcollective spaceˇ¦ has made references to art works by 9 Chinese artists ˇV Bai Yiluo, Hai Bo, Ma Yunfei, Shao Yinong and Mu Chen, Wang Shilong, Wang Tong, Xiang Xin and Huang Mingzhan, Zhunag Hui.
