摘要

A Chinese farmer built a flying machine out of scrap metal and aluminium foil. He insisted it could fly to the moon. Whenever an engineer or some other nay-sayer explained that it could not work, he simply replied: "This is not my understanding," and continued to test his machine for the fateful hour of take-off. This would-be UFO, farmer included, is one of the art installations in China's first pavilion at the Venice Biennale, presented by Peng Yu and Sun Yuan, two conceptual artists who had read about him in a news- paper and asked him to build his machine in Venice. Now named "Farmer Du Wenda's Flying Saucer", the farmer's stubborn attempt to jump from feudal culture to outer space is seen by the artists as a symbol of China's leap into modernity.
