Resum
Chen Zhen (1955 Shanghai−2000 Paris) emigrated to France in 1986. His work engages with the notion of ‘cultural homelessness’ and transcends the boundaries between the physical and the psychic. This idea of being in movement between different cultures links directly with the term ‘Transexperience’, coined by Chen Zhen, which refers to a new way of considering the emotions and experiences that emerge from the experience of the immigrant as he/she makes new cultural connections. He uses art as a form of cultural resistance, that is, an instrument to generate debate and critical thinking. This article explores the exhibition discourse of his first show in Spain Chen Zhen: In-Between (2014−2015), and its impact on the media. It examines the artist reception and draws on the notion of transculturalism to analyse recurrent post-Orientalist clichés.
