Madame (姑奶奶). dir. Jiongjiong Qiu (邱炯炯). 2010.
Born 1977 in Sichuan, China, Jiongjiong Qiu is an award-winning Chinese filmmaker and artist known for his unique approach to documentary filmmaking that experiments with the way of presenting, telling, and preserving history.
Growing up during the transitional period after the Culture Revolution, Qiu constantly felt perplexed, restless and nervous as a headstrong boy raised up in a humid inland town where trauma from the past lingered. His memory, filled with images of tilted angles, abnormal sights, and unpleasant scents, is a collage of willful observations made in an age characteristical of its passivity and abnormality.
Qiu first encountered Madame Bi Langda on a Tuesday night at a bar in Sanlitun, Beijing, where the “lady” went on stage was dressed in Beardsley style with eight-inch heels. And for the next three hours “she, Bi Langda, [was] the combination of goddess and King Kong, a weak, stubborn and long-winded local beast”. “I instantly wanted to film her”, said Qiu.
During the day a well-known fashion designer referred to as the Tailor in the film, Qihui Fan becomes the drag queen Madame Bi Langda when the night drops. Yet swept along by the increasingly complicated gender identity politics and rigid moral constraint in China, he was no more than a person who longed for love while falling into deeper and deeper despair.
This documentary is an one-act play that captures the “violent, gorgeous, skittish, sarcastic, sad and charming” Madame Bi Langda, as well as the man behind all the heavy makeups who dedicated his life to articulate the aesthetics of living.

Ce qui se passe. Chu Teh-Chun (朱德群). Oil on canvas. 1981-1982.
Chu Teh-Chun (b.1920) was a Chinese-French abstract painter acclaimed for his pioneering style integrating traditional Chinese painting techniques with Western abstract art. Together with Wu Guanzhong and Zao Wou-ki, the three were dubbed the as the "Three Musketeers" of modernist Chinese artists in France.
Rarely seen in his snowscape paintings, Ce qui se passe features a background composed of green hues, among which a touch of white suggests the presence of the snow-covered Alps. The black lines that traverse the canvas indicate Chu’s conscious application of structure and vitality in abstract his paintings. Such technique is directly influenced by his early training in “wild cursive” calligraphy, which Chu renders to be in tune with western abstract painting’s spirit.
