Political Slogans — 2

This work is part of Liu Xinhua's performative series Political Slogans. For this particular work, Liu bought two sheets of stamps, painted them with yellow pigment, went to the post office and asked the staff to print postmarks on the work for the reason of making conceptual art. Liu's request was declined at first because it would be a illegal practice, but he managed to acquire postmarks for the work from the post office with the help of a friend the next day.

該作品是劉新華帶有行為藝術元素的作品《政治標語》系列的其中一件。爲了實施這個作品,劉氏購買了兩版郵票,塗上黃顏色,以裝作觀念藝術為理由到郵局要求在作品上蓋上郵戳,但遭到拒絕,因為郵局認為這是違法行為。第二天,他在朋友的幫助下成功在作品上蓋上郵戳。
