If you're interested in avant-garde art, you won't want to miss this new exhibition. Beijing's Ullens Centre for Contemporary Art, or "UCCA" for short, has launched their first major event in 2013. This public exhibition named On-and-Off focus on the young artists in China. 50 promising individuals and their works were chosen to participate.

Most artists featured in this exhibition were born after 1975. The title, "On-and-Off", refers to the generation's unique position as social narrators of contemporary China. It's the virtual toggle of the internet and modern electronic gadgets. It's also a metaphor for constantly switching one's identity to adjust to different social environments in the open-policy China, an era beset by the confrontation between old and new ideologies.
