Note:  One of the best selling of the Contemporary Chinese artists, Zhang Huan pushes the envelope in his performance art that he records through photography. The artist uses his own body as the work of art, and views it as his highest form of communication. In "Sunshine II" he joins the spiritual with the corporeal, depicting himself in a quasi-religious ritual.
