Backed by Taiwanese entrepreneur Tsao Rhy-chang,the creators of Yuzi Paradise spent almost ten years developing large-scale outdoor art projects prior to opening to the public in 2004. At a cost of millions of dollars, and with the help of curatorial staff and visiting artists from around the world, the park exhibits more than 200 sculptures by 140 artists representing 47 nationalities.Many people have wondered why I should throw myself into a quixotic arts project like Yuzi Paradise and the Hotel of Modern Art. Ive been called a fool many times over, so I decided to give my park the ironic name of Yuzi Paradise, or Fools Paradise in Chinese.The fool enjoys doing what he believes is right, as Ive said many times over. We all know that private funding for the construction of art parks is rare enough even in developed countries. Many people of means simply decide to rest on their laurels and enjoy material comforts. But I, the fool, observed that while China now enjoys more material wealth, we still lack aesthetics in our daily life. To enrich the nation and the worlds aesthetics is my lifes goal.This may be hard for some people to grasp. Regardless, I will continue in my pursuit of aesthetic perfection. Life means more than wealth or power. Life needs an artistic, spiritual dimension, and an environment in which to experience it.As a world famous scenic spot, Guilin boasts a beautiful natural landscape, yet until recently, there has been little of cultural relevance.
