This is a work that reveals the Long March's contradictions and problems. Idealism and reality, knowledge and society, self and public are the problems encountered by the historical Long March, and it is also the challenge that today's Long March is faced with. The work is regarding a discussion between a group of black and Asian artists and thinkers in America that ultimately ends without conclusion in a discussion regarding black artist from America joining the Long March. The process of the meeting and its final result is a performance of a failed idealism.

The topics discussed touch upon periphery, colonization, revolution, globalization, cultural characteristics and differences, etc, topics contemporary art is particularly focused upon. This work takes place in another country (America), and displayed in another country (Japan). Both of which are place in another space of the "Long March" - "Long March - Chinatown" and displayed. Within it is inherently contained a utopian ideal. The idea behind selecting this work was to show the behind a broad and sweeping globalization, there are ethnic differences and contradictions that cannot be overcome. The work is composed of a video and 2 oil paintings of frame of the video work.
