Dinner with Chen DanQing, legendary artist. In the 80s, his oil paintings of Tibetans changed the direction of Chinese contemporary art from Soviet propaganda style into western realism. He is in his 70s. Told me stories of meeting Andy Warhol in Ai Wei Wei’s apartment.

One lives in peace and prosperity, the other are turning themselves into Sunday BBQ.
If a group invents a nonexistent oppression and exploit the mentally ill, then we can categorize that movement as a cult, the tibetan separatist movement.
