The New York Times' "What To See Right Now" - Review by Jason Farago
"A 25-year-old photographer named RongRong was among them, and 40-odd black-and-white prints here document the low-rent fecundity of Beijing’s East Village, named in tribute to New York’s own beggared art quarter. RongRong witnessed Mr. Zhang’s fabled, revolting performance “12 Square Meters,” for which the artist slathered his naked body in honey and fish sauce, then let flies gorge on his flesh in a noxious public latrine. He photographed Mr. Zhang’s nude body and shaved head, gleaming with sweat, angst and total dedication — and then wrote to his sister, 'It felt like the end of life.'"
